rascalsmom Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 Just found out that my in-laws had their 15 year old cat put down this morning. She had been losing weight, her coat looked really bad, drinking a ton of water, etc....just not feeling real great. She was originally SIL's cat, but when they moved to SC a few years ago, the cat apparently didn't get a relocation package; she was 'left' with my in-laws. I guess it worked out for the best, from the cat's point of view. She was never a sociable cat, and didn't like SIL's two hellions kids AT ALL. She did, however, love my MIL. My in-laws aren't in a position to put a lot of money into testing, to see what was wrong with Sasha--although MIL and I suspected perhaps diabetes, or maybe kidney failure--and they recently found out she'd been urinating outside the box....so they said goodbye to her today. Godspeed, Sasha. You were never a very friendly girl, but thankfully your last few years were very happy. Please keep MIL in your prayers, this was very difficult for her.

Poor little kitty....she was probably having kidney issues as well as being hypothyroid. Very common in older cats....RIP little girl. I know that my kitties were there to great her at the Bridge. Hugs to your MIL...it's never easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batmom Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 (edited) I'm so sorry. Run away over the bridge, little one. You'll find playmates there, and soft spots to sleep, and everything a kitty could desire, right at your paw-tips.

Guest Greyt_dog_lover Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 I just sent my girl Dexter (kitty) over the bridge as she had renal failure and the symptoms sound similar. Godspeed little one, say hi to Dexter when you get there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
