    News not so good

    Thankyou, everyone, for your kind thoughts.

    I just spoke to his vet and the news isn't that good. The transfusion seems to have worked - his blood count has improved and he's sitting up, but his breathing is a bit heavy. She thinks his heart may be giving him problems and he may have fluid in his lungs. He's going to have a chest xray now.

    Welcome to PT, and you and Zac will be in my thoughts.
    Come on Zac, you gotta get better so we can see more beautiful pictures of you and Zoe.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    He's gone ....

    The x-ray showed his lungs were full of fluid - his little heart just couldn't cope any more - it was in a very bad state. And the toxins in his blood shot up again.

    There was nothing anyone could do to make him better, even breathing was a struggle.

    I held him in my arms and he just went to sleep. He knows how much I love him.

    I am so sorry that such a sad thing is what motivated you to joining. Maybe when you are feeling better, you can post pictures of him and share stories of him with us. He knew he was loved and he had a great life with you, just remind yourself that so many fur babies don't ever know the love of a human or the security of a good home. It is so hard when we loose one, they are an important part of our lives and family.

    RIP dear little Zac.

    I am sorry that he died Dawn but he will be playing happily with his new friends at Rainbow Bridge and he made sure that his meowmie found a whole new bunch of friends before he went. Welcome to PT - we are here to share the good times and the bad

    I'm so sorry Dawn. RIP Zac.

    That is very sad, but he went peacefully surrounded by love and as someone else said, knowing you had found new friends with whom to share your grief.

    When you are able to remember the good times and share some pictures, please do that too.

    Welcome aboard the board!

    I am so sorry to read of Zac's passing. My deepest sympathy for your loss.

    Zac is a wonderful cat, and his spirit is peaceful and happy now at the Rainbow Bridge. You gave him a wonderful life.

    Hugs and love,
    Pat
