He was nearly 17 (as far as we know - he was a rescue cat) and I had had him since 1999. Had come back more or less from the dead 9 months ago when treated for severe hyperthyroid. When that was diagnosed they also found a liver tumour which had not been growing fast. He became ill overnight and vet was clear it was the liver problem as tumour had now grown and nothing to be done. I know he had a good innings but am feeling sad and worried other cat willie lonely
