91. So sorry

Mon Jun 21, 2021, 02:37 PM

Jun 2021

I don’t have any pets myself but my best friend has pets that I have made friends with. Over the years I have had several of my furry friends die. Honey Bunny, CoCo and Bagel, the beagles. Doble the doberman. Minnie the rottweiler/doberman mix. Miss Kitty.

Right now she is nursing Nacho who is her 21 year old orange tabby. Nacho has always looked young and healthy until this year. Recently she stopped eating and lost weight. She was down to 3.5 pounds. My friend took her to the vet and she has kidney disease. She had to be hydrated by IV (which she hates) and has to eat kidney disease cat food. Yesterday we sat with her and petted her while she ate. My friend says she seems to eat more when she sits with her and pets her while she eats. She is back up to 6 pounds now but I suspect she won’t be with us much longer.
