Unexpectedly we had to put Reggie to sleep yesterday. He hadn't been eating and acting normal for two days...One of those being yesterday. So I brought him into the vet and after much hesitation, thought and self doubt...And pulling bloodwork just to be sure I was doing the right thing....we put him down....Although yesterday didn't have to be his last day, the next few days wouldn't have been good for him. He was is in kidney failure. The Thyroid meds that he had been taken for the last maybe year and a half had taken a toll on his kidney.
Here's some pictures of him in the last day or so.
He was laying around just staring into space then he got up and played with the water in the faucet....
This was so difficult because he seemed to have a little bit of life left in him...being Reggie, even growled as I handed him over to be checked out by Dr. Diane.
Now...for the first time since I was maybe Kasey's age....I have no cats...it's a weird empty feeling...They've always been my favorite animal since my first cat, Kelly.
