My Cat is not well. He has heart failure. He’s on medication but is off his food. Just got to look after him. He’s lost weight, not in any pain. He sat on my chest for an hour this afternoon, purring, nuzzling my hand, but I can see he’s deteriorating. I think I might have to take him back to the vets tomorrow.
I’ve had him for 8 years as a rescue cat, so I don’t know his actual age. He’s so loving. I will miss him deeply when he goes.

I’m very sorry to hear about your cat. It’s clear how much he means to you, and your care for him, even in these difficult moments, speaks volumes. The tenderness you describe – his purring, his quiet presence – shows a bond that goes beyond words. It’s natural to feel the weight of this, knowing change is near, yet there is something quietly beautiful in how you are attending to him now. Should you return to the vet, trust that you are doing what is most loving. Your companionship has given him comfort and safety; that is no small thing.

Hello, I am so sad for you and what your going through. I went through this just last spring. It hurt so badly I wrote a poem for her and I’m told by some friends that it will never stop hurting because thay are our family.

I’m not giving up yet. He ate more today, (little and often) I got him one with more gravy and smaller pieces of meat. I’m going to call the vet in the morning x
