My lovely cat Marmalade had to be put to sleep this day last year.
I rescued her from the streets after always seeing her around by mine wanting food and a little stroke but very skittish.
After a year she decided to just come in my house and never left, after a while i got her scanned the vet found she was 6yrs old and belonged to someone 20miles away who had not reported her missing for 2 or more years and actuarly kind of fogot about her.
After speaking to the registered person she agreed to transfer her over to me where she was so happy, such a submissive cat and although still a bit scared always slept on my pillow ( the only place she would really relax)
No sickness untill last Nov when she was treated for urine infection 2 rounds of meds didn't work, so on 6th jan last year she had a scan which showed a hugh mass in her stomach attached to organs, it was such a shock, nothing could be done so the day of diagnosis we had to PTS. I miss her every day but I know she had a good life with us.
On top of that my first cat Kiki (who i bought from a kitten) had tyroid issues which was trated with meds for 16m months but out of the blue last sept her stomach swelled up it was found she had a cancerous mass couldnt be treated so had to be PTS aged 10, so
9 months after Marmalade.
Miss her so much as well.
Got one cat left now Ginge who i rescued from the streets in 2020 she was a bit fiesty and is still scared of anything / anyone but shes a lap cat now and very attached to me.
Sorry for any one else that has or is going through the same.
