The night before last, My cat, Sandy, didn't eat a thing...

That day, he collapsed with his nose inches from the water in our fountain the the back yard. We bought him in to find out that he was limping/unbalanced when he walked and would prefer just to sit in one place or move up to three feet at a time.

In the evening, we force fed him some later and some cat food jelly/mashed cat food. Kept him warm wrapped up in a blanket and my fleece over the top of him. I stayed up until 3:20 in the morning checking on him every 10/15mins. Trying to warm him up and keep him company/on the blanket.

He moved to the food plate, had some water by his own accord and I got him to eat the tiniest scrap of tuna... So I thought he was getting better considering the food plate is about eight feet from where he was laying.

I went to bed, my mum got up at about 4:15 in the morning (so he was unattended for the whole nothing of an hour) and he'd moved half way across out living room. But y this point he couldn't walk at all.

I was asleep when my parents took him to the vets at about 9am, they came back and told me the vets verdict of "he was in shock, and he's got stones in his bladder" so they were going to flush out his bladder. They done this a little later, and we got a phone call at about 12:30pm saying he's passed away (after they flushed his bladder.)

Yeah. me and my parents went and said our goodbyes. I still have his collar on my desk (it was around my wrist for a while) but he managed to go from fine to... Yeah... In two days. I still have the disbelief that he's gonna come home in a couple of days or something... He's never been affectionate toward me really but he was always -there- ... At six or seven years old he didn't do anything to deserve death...

Beautiful boy. R.I.P. : http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4885977/200.....03310002_3.jpg

So yeah. No commissions for a while... I can't work right now.

Please respect Sandy, me and my family with your remarks and comments. Thanks.
