Buddy had to be put to sleep today. He had Conjestive Heart Failure- technically is was called an Atrium Standstill. He was resting peacefully with Rich (my son) and I petting him as he went to sleep. It was very unexpected. He had not been showing signs of having any real problems. He slept a lot and was slower than he used to be just because he was 14 years old. The vet also felt a mass in his tummy so it was best that we made the decision now rather than let him suffer at all. I've cried and cried and I will cry some more. I miss him already.
He is being cremated and his ashes will be spread out in a nice pet memorial area at Wayside Waifs, the adoption facility where we adopted him 13 years ago.
Rest in Peace my little one! We love you!
