RIP Felix

[kayre]

Treatments beginning in November were a blessing; for his last three months Felix was able to eat nearly anything he wanted with no ill effects. But his latest shot last week had almost no effect, and by Saturday I knew he was done.

I have had many cats, but he's only the third who was especially mine, and I don't think I've ever been so bonded with a cat; this is pretty awful. We will have just Oscar for a few months, until Laura and Nala move back in (we will likely be keeping Nala while Laura is in college). If Oscar is miserable we'll consider another cat, but I think he'll enjoy getting all the attention and treats for a while.

I'm so sorry. I'm glad you were able to give him a good life.

:( I'm glad you had the last three months, but so sorry it wasn't still longer.

I'm so sorry -- that's a hard loss.

Much Sympathy. Pets like Felix are very hard to loose, and impossible to replace.

I am so sorry for your loss. It's hard to lose any pet, but it's especially hard to lose the ones you have those special bonds with.
