Thanks you guys.


I just got off the phone and Denny explained what happened. I will try to explain as best as I can remember. He said last night he got off work and he couldn't find Blacky anywhere. Usually he is right there at the house. They went around the block calling for him and he didn't show up. Then this morning they found him after Denny called for him and he came out of the bushes in the front. They said he was really weak and walking very slow. They took him inside and there is diarrea sp? all over his back end like he got scared or something? My mom is wondering if he was chased by a dog.

I asked her if he had any puncture wounds on him and they said no. She says it doesn't seem like he was hit by a car or anything, but more like he was scared. What's weird is that this morning he drank a LOT of water and out of a DISH! He NEVER drinks out of a dish. He likes to drink his water out of the bathroom sink, and has done that since he was a kitten. This is not normal. He was very thirsty. They tried giving him wet cat food and he only ate a tiny bit so they were not able to give him his medicine.

I asked if maybe he had gotten into antifreeze but they seem to think there is no chance of that happening. Anyways, since he drank all the water Denny put a towel down in the bathtub and Blacky has been laying there ever since. He's just sleeping. Denny put the phone up to Blackys ear so I could say hello. I know it sounds weird, but I love my cat so much! He was like MY FIRST CAT EVER! The one that was mine, I saved his life. I miss him so much.

For the past few weeks I have been thinking of his so much since he is getting really old and dreading that this day would come and I would not have a chance to say goodbye. I only have one recent picture my sister sent me, but I don't have any with me in it, and I want to take a picture with him before he leaves. Denny is already asking me how much it is for euthanasia. I want to see him and just give him a kiss one more time. I miss all my kitties so bad. That is one of the worst things about moving here to Oregon, is being so far away from my fur and human family.

I thought at first Denny was going to say something happened to my mom or brother and sister, just the way he was talking. It was a very scary moment getting that phone call. I told Denny that is they put Blacky to sleep that I want to see him first. My mom says not to worry about pictures because she has a lot of new ones of him, but it's not the same. I want to take a picture with me holding my baby. I have pics of him and I when we were younger but that's it. I always see people have pics with their cats and I want one, especially of Blacky. He's just so special, you don't understand.

I especially miss Baby and Ickeris. I am not that attached to Thor because my mom has only had him for year or so, and she's always going back and forth as to whether it's her cat anyway, even though Thors supposedly real owners don't give a rats a$$ about him.

Anyways, sorry to get off subject. I just miss my furkids so much! I wish there was a way to post video on here, because I have the best videos of me and Blacky from last year, when my sister was singing an NSYNC song to him and he slapped her, lol. He's feisty because he's old. And then there is one where I gave Thor a bath and clipped off all of his hair, and he was a naked kitty, hehe. If I ever get our video camera back I will put the video on tv and then take a picture of the tv with my digital camera, and get pics that way. That way I will have pics of him .

I hope to go there soon and that Blacky perks up. Denny is the type of person that thinks because he's old he should just be euthanized. When I said I wanted to see Blacky before they put him to sleep, if they do, he said "Ya right" like I was kidding. Before I called I knew to stop crying or they would think I was crazy. He doesn't understand. I had Blacky before he even met and married my mom!
