Sighthounds4me Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 King was a barn cat that DH had taken with 3 littermates from his sister's ranch. He was about 9 months old when he went to live with DH and his ex. When DH moved out after the divorce, King went with him. Then I moved in, and we all lived happily ever after. About a month ago, King stopped eating regularly. This was very unusual, but he did not start to lose weight right away. We thought he was getting finicky, so we bought a different food. He ate for a little while, then stopped again. Then he started to lose weight. He lost about 4-5 pounds in two weeks. We took him to the vet, who found his liver values to be very high. Everything else was normal. Long story short, he was dying, if we couldn't do anything about it. We tried supportive care. But we couldn't get meds into him, and he would not eat. He lost more weight, and we helped him to the Bridge last evening. He's there now, cuddled with one of "his" dogs, Gunnar. Sleep well, King. Quote Sarah, the human, Henley, and Armani the Borzoi boys, and Brubeck the Deerhound.Always in our hearts, Gunnar, Naples the Greyhounds, Cooper and Manero, the Borzoi, and King-kitty, at the Rainbow Bridge.
