Just lately, our darling boy, Bosco, has declined. I mean, like, fast. He's dropped half his body weight in the past couple of weeks. At first, we thought it was just old age (Our boy Mouse, who's a year older, is skinny as a rail, but still full of beans and demands), but he's stopped grooming, and seems to be completely out of touch with his environment.

He's currently at the vet, having bloodwork. We are supposed to return at 2pm. He's a fighter - he's battled a terrible bladder infection, a stroke, numerous stomach ailments, injuries, moves and adjustment to Sevvy. He turned very curmudgeonly when Sevvy appeared, then became reclusive and sullen after the stroke, but he still liked a cuddle and a pat.

Now, he just sits and either sleeps all day or makes his painful way to eat a bite, drink a sip or two of water, and pee and poo anywhere he fancies.

We are expecting the worst.

I'm so sorry for you and TheHubs and for your boy. I hope that whatever happens today, all three of you are at peace and your boy is not in pain. *hugs* Good luck to all three of you today. I love you.

Oh, Teddy. Our pets count on us for everything, even for the hard decisions. My heart is with you today.

I'm so sorry about Bosco. Is he the one who disappeared for a bit at one point and was not quite the same afterwards? Was that the stroke? Poor boy...am sending you all healing energy and love. ❤️

Yes. He had a stroke, but he's always been a bit more delicate than the other two. We will know one way or another shortly.

Oh Teddy, that is so hard- making the right decision for your pet, and doing what is best for them, even when it means letting them gently go. I am hugging you and TheHubs so tightly!! Keep us posted, honey.

I'm sorry to hear this- I know how much your kitties mean to you and Trev. Having to make a decision like this is heart-wrenching. I hope the vet will have better news than you're expecting, but whatever the news you'll do whats best for Bosco. Keep us posted, honey.

~gentle hugs for all of you~
