Mourning Saying goodbye today. She was misdiagnosed with hyperthyroidism. We learned on Saturday that after months of treatment for elevated T4, she has a tumour the size of a small apple in her abdomen. The vet recommended euthanasia.
We're all shocked. I can't stop crying. Doing in-home euthanasia in a few hours. I'll miss her so much. It hasn't sunk in yet that I'm losing her.
She's 14. We adopted her and her brother at age 10.
I'm her favourite person and she's with me all the time. If she doesn't know where I am, she calls out for me. If I'm not sitting so she can be on my lap, she's asking me to pick her up.
She's leaving a void-sized hole in my heart.

I lost my kitty a year ago and she had fiv. That was a horrible disease that she battled for so long. She ended up with a tumor the size of her bladder pushing on her bladder and stomach making it hard for her to eat or do anything. It was really horrible. An I couldnt do anything to fix it, all I could do was let her go. It doesnt make the choice to do so easier... but it was the best thing to do for her. Im so sorry for your loss. 🫂🤍
