I need some wholesome shit right now.
My cat is dying. She stopped eating her dry food over a month ago. I tried some canned food we had, but that was too solid, so I bought some liquid food. She licks a little bit, but never finishes it.
Hey ability to make it to the litter box is gone. We now have piddle pads all over the house.
Just the other day she wanted to go outside, and she spent longer out there than she had ever spent, and slowly made her way out of the yard, further than she has ever been.
She can't walk that well now, she can only make it a little way before she needs a break.
I think she only has a week or two left, and I want to spend as much time as I can with her.
I just want to hear some good stories from you guys about the last few times you had with your pets.
Oh when my cat Booter was in the same situation in 2018......we tried everything. Turns out he had toxoplasmosis, which we had treated, that was masking dry FIP. He was only 7 years old. I spend a couple thousand between scans, meds, and the final decision to end his suffering.
I have a clean conscience. I tried everything and in the end, he was beyond saving. I was in credit card debt for several months from it, but I could afford it, and I have the peace of mind that I exhausted all avenues. No "But what if?"s. But not everyone is so fortunate.
