Tonight Butterfingers' condition got worse. I think he knew the end was near, and he stopped eating. I even tried hand feeding him, but he refused. I knew something was up, he was shaking with weakness, I called the vet. He said that he'd try and help him, but he was not sure if he could. Since I was not able to make it to the vet's (45 minute drive), he told me that he would call. He just did. Butter had a liver problem that he was doing a good job at hiding for a while. When I was very young, we got him from the shelter, but didn't know what was wrong, besides that he was abused before found. The vet decided to put him to sleep, but before he left with him, I spent the last 30 minutes ever with my best furry friend. This was the first time in almost 8 years that I have been able to cry. But I told Butter that everything was going to be alright.
Sure I feel bad, but it was best for him. Sure I'll miss the little kitty who was there for me when I was going through a depressed weekend, or the kitty who would run across my desk, chasing the Wyvrn I had in FFXI, but in the end I realize that the end was coming, and from what the vet said, Butter was sick for a while and was probably just hiding it.
King Chubby (Chico) will be lonely I know, and my dad and mom decided that we should probably get a companion for him. I know that is what Butter would want. We gave him a chance at life and I know he wants us to continue that.
I'll miss that lil' critter. Always getting into trouble, hiding in my sheets, spending a long time walking around on my quilt in a circle making it just purrrfect for him before he would take a nap, checking on me when I was upset, and listening to bands like Minor Threat and Government Issue with me in my room.
Butter, I know that wherever you are, you are probably happy, and rock on little buddy.
