I took my cat Fluffy to the vet this morning, she's lost a lot of weight and throws up when she eats. I thought it might be the virus she had again, but it's not

:( I'm sorry. [[[[hugs]]]]]

I've been crying since I found out. Fluffy's in here with me now - it's odd, it's almost as if she is trying to comfort me, trying to tell me that it'll be okay.

Anyone who says it's not possible to love an animal as if they were your children is crazy. I've lost pets before, but none of them have hurt as bad as just the possibility of losing this one, or as bad as the scare I had with Hemi.

I'm gonna go dose myself with advil. I've cried myself into a headache.

You know that cats walk the astral plain, right?

She'll be okay. Cats are one of the few animals that can return to this realm of existence after they pass through the curtain -- and she's not dead yet. :)

I've had...visitations, I guess you would say, from other cats I've lost before. After Littlefoot died (yes, he was named after the Land Before Time Character.) we didn't have another cat. But at night I could still feel one jumping up on my bed and curling up to go to sleep.

I wish the tumor was removable. I wish I could do more. All I can do is hope, I guess, and pray to whatever deity is manning the phones today.

I felt the same way when Logan, my Rottie, was diagnosed with bone cancer. There's nothing you really can do except make the last days as comfortable and fulfilling for them as humanly possible.

Animals except death far more graciously than we do. Buggie and I will light candles for the two of you. :)
