  1. I haven't been on the forum for awhile now, but I needed to post today. I needed a place where Egon's life will be remembered, and not just by our family.

     

    We had to let Egon go yesterday. We think he had a small stroke or seizure on Monday, it left him unsure, unsettled and stumbling sideways. We watched and hoped that he could recover, but after a couple days knew he wouldn't.

     

    Hearing my four year old cry "I want Egon back" will haunt me forever.

     

    Egon you were a quiet presence in our lives. Always excited to make a new friend, tamer of feral kitties, thief of un-guarded food, your magical ability that let you know when the gate was left open, fearlessness of coyotes (crazy pup), unbridled fear of woodpeckers, and the best nap taker ever.

     

    I just want you to know that we love you and will always remember.


    I haven't seen that bottom picture in so long. He was 5 years old in that photo, so young. I had forgotten how big his eye patch was, it has been whitened for so long. Oh Egon.

  2. We are still trying to figure out what is bothering Egon. He still has his skin infection that we have been battling since August of last year with a side of ringworm

    We are now trying to find out why he is bruising so easily. We have done pt/ptts which are high, thyroid is okay, ACT never clotted the first time, the most recent clotted right away, we even did a mucosal bleeding time which was fine. What the vet has been thinking is Ehrlichia, von Willebrand factor, and something else I can't remember right now. We don't know where to go from here. Our vet has been great, she has been searching for answers for us.

    On the bright side, Egon seems to be doing just fine otherwise. He is a happy man, who loves his bananas and destroying stuffies.
