Some of you may remember my thread about my cat Hudson who had bladder issues this past winter... Well, after the PU surgery he had been fine, we thought we'd have a long happy life with him.
Well... I've been mostly off line for a few days. I thought I might as well update.
Until today I owned three wonderful cats. Hudson, the bratty boy of the group had been acting under the weather a few days (two to be exact) but not SERIOUSLY under the weather (and his peeing was normal,he was eating, just a bit...slower then usual and now thinking back on it his bathing habits were seriously less then they'd been). I figured I'd better get him an appointment and was planning on doing so in the morning. I came home to find him unconscious and unresponsive. Before I was able to get through to an emergency vet he'd convulsed twice and was gone...
My animals are very important to me. I'm kicking myself so much for not just taking him in the moment I thought he seemed off. I still am shocked at how a little under the weather turned into this.
I'm having him cremated... the apartment is far too quiet without him. I keep looking for him. When I open the door to come in after work I look and see if he's with Cooper and Shiloh to beg for dinner, and when I turn on the shower I keep expecting him to run up and watch the water run like he did. And before bed is the hardest because he's the only cat I ever knew that would give kisses. I miss him a lot.
My two other boys have an appointment on Wednesday to get checked out, they're acting fine but I wouldn't be in very good shape if I lost another one especially with Ryan on deployment.
So, that's where I disappeared to.
