Thank you everyone very much.


This is a very hard time on all of us. Even Yoshi & Lucky are very mellow today. Fluffy has this 'smell' on him, and I think we all know what that is.

Today is worse than yesterday......he is eating some, but not nearly enough. He isn't drinking either. He has a new problem today - like he needs something else . His hind legs are not working. He will struggle to get up, move a few feet then plop down. His front paws go outward, too. I don't know if his arthritis is acting up, or he just doesn't have any more strength left in him to move
Then a few minutes later I walk around looking for him and there he is - jumped up on the kitchen chair HOW did he do that??!! When he got off the chair he just ploped down and stayed there for a while, he also howled when he got down - I think he might have hurt himself.

This is so hard, one minute he is moving around (just barely) and the next he is passed out sleeping in a very strange position - like he just got up on the bed, and that was all he could do. When he sleeps it is VERY soundly.

He seems to be sending me mixed messages - or maybe I'm just not getting them correctly, I still don't know what to do. Maybe I am just too selfish and keep thinking he will get better, he is just having a bad day today.

I'm struggling with taking him in today........for the last time.
