Hello there,

I have been absent the whole past period because I have travelled to a bedouin place where life is as simple as it was thousands of years ago. I spent a great time there and I returned back 5 days ago. These 5 days are marked as the yet blackest days of my life.

I came back to find my family really depressed and sad. I asked what is wrong? They told me that Tom (My 3 years old cat and best friend) got a chronic renal failure (Kidney) and that he is going to die. I just thought they are bullshitting me, I immediately took him to the vet near my home and he told me my family had been to him twice and he regretted to tell me that Tom's status is bad prognosis, he won't survive.

I refused to hear all of this bullshit and I went to the biggest vet center in Egypt and there they told me that the only solution that might save his life is to clear the urinary blockage he got and then do a surgery called perineal urethrostomy where they were going to change the path through which the urine goes. They cleared the urinary blockage and told me to come back tomorrow.

By the time I went home with him, I realized he is dying. He bled from the urea (back), he was sunken in his urine and he laid on his side. I kept beside him for 2 hours where he tried to stand up and then immediately falls, I couldn't stop my tears rivers from flowing. I kept him warm and kept rubbing him gently over the head, his breathing is still working but it is getting calmer and calmer then at his last minutes, he started agonal breathing where his breath was really difficult but could be heard, he kept that for like 15 mins and then it stopped....

I cannot imagine that this really happened, I feel like I lost one of the dearest family members I got. I still can see him jumping in every place around home. I still can see his fur on my bed... I am completely depressed and in the worst mood ever, I have an important interview in the next few hours that I don't know what I will be able to do at. I seek your help.
 
:( I'm sorry to hear about your cat. RIP

Losing a family pet is never easy.

Be strong.

My condolences, Madi. It's terrible when a pet passes away because they are family. <3

When a pet lives with you for at least a year or two that pet is part of your family but one day when it comes to the point where he/she dies thats just heart breaking... Its never easy like Nebulous said.. Stay strong pal.

R.I.P Cutie Cat.
I'd like to thank all of you. It is really killing me. I never thought I'd cry that much on a pet loss. I will never raise anymore pets again.
 
I'm so sorry to hear this Madi. I was just glad you were able to be with him and comfort him in his last stage before he passed away. At least he didn't pass alone and was with his best friend when he did. There are no words to say to make you feel better and the passing of any pet is heartbreaking. :(
 
im crying here

i know how hard it is when a beloved pet passes

just take comfort that in his short life he was loved and that in his final days he was not alone

my heartfelt condolences to you

Thank you for your words sincerely, I am trying to adapt but I am sure it will take time. I have 3 other pets who are related to Tom (Two are his descendants and his so-called female) I just cannot look at any of them anymore but I am adapting, too slowly.
 
awe... :(

what a pretty and precious looking kittie...

at least it seems like that your interview ended up well...

i know what it feels like to lose a pet as i've lost a few of my own pets in my life and i truly loved every single one of them and i was also heart broken to lose them... the only way i adapted and pretended to get over them is to keep in mind of all of those happy memories i had with them and be happy of those memories...

being sad of a loved one is hard but keep in mind of the happiness and the good memories to try to make yourself smile in the memory of them...
