Bye Bye Boog

[tiggymalvern]

Boog cat got worse over the Christmas period - he went off his food and was lethargic and his respiratory rate increased. The cancer had spread to his lungs, so we euthanased him yesterday. Only 7 weeks earlier, his chest x-rays had been clear. Such is the aggressive nature of adenocarcinoma. He never even got chance to start his chemo, we cancelled it because he was obviously deteriorating. But he spent his last afternoon sitting on laps and purring, which is all an ill cat can ask for.

Oh my gosh! I just now read your post. Oh, Tiggy, I'm so sorry for your loss. Boog had the best care and loving family he could've asked for with you and SO and Kuro. *hugs*

Thanks, hon. He was an idiot cat, but he was our idiot, and he meant well even when he got it wrong!
