Pray for my boi

Pretty sure I’m going to have to put my beautiful baby boy to rest on Monday. He’s been getting very lethargic and lost his appetite. Spent 48 hours at the vet and he was treated for pancreatitis, kidney disease, and now we find heart failure. He’s back home with all the meds he could need and he’s comfortable.

He’s my 17 year old very special boy. We’ve been extremely lucky with only 2 minor health issues that needed vet care and otherwise normal visits with clean bills of health. He’s always been very strong (if very picky when it comes to eating) and he’s been with me through the death of my mother and father.

Im honestly feeling pretty lost right now, but every time I look at him I can’t help but feel it’s time. He’s got the best chance the vet can give him, but I still don’t want to watch him suffer.

I really don’t have much faith, but if you do, please pray for Bear.

Keep him as happy and comfortable as possible. It won’t be long. When he is closer… You can have someone come over and give him a shot. He will just take a final nap in your lap

Not OP, but I had to take my little buddy to got to the vet under dire circumstances. I held him, wrapped in a towel for warmth, like a baby. I talked to him and he talked back but never opened his eyes. I couldn’t be in the room when they gave him the shot or after. Now I’m crying.

Sorry you have to go through this. Losing one of your best friends is an awful thing to go through.

My 18-year-old has a couple of health issues, and I’m just dreading the day it starts to get worse. Sending love for you and Bear!

oh how lucky is your boy to have such an amazing person by his side and being so loved. Like all of us he also has a limited time on earth but you made his time here the best. You are taking the best care possible and this is a blessing. Lucky for animals they have an option humans don’t have, the option of not having to suffer, and you are the one giving him this gift.

I’m really sorry for you, your boy is beautiful!

I’m so sorry and hugs to you, and thank you for sharing his story. Please hang in there and if Bear needs to go he knows he was always loved and cared for. Kiss your fur baby for me.
