I am so sorry. I only found your other thread about Ceasar a few minutes ago. You gave him the best care he'd allow. He was lucky to have found you. :rbheart:

A big thank you to everyone for your support and concern. Caesar was sitting against the wall of the now foreclosed house where I used to feed him and the others. When I first found Caesar today, he was barely moving and I thought he was already gone but he moved a tiny bit and I was relieved. He tried to walk up to me and meow but just a tiny sound came out and he almost slipped off the stepping stone but I caught him. He was still but once I picked him up he did try and jump away and was trying to bite me. I had gloves and a t-shirt wrapped around my arm so I was able to put him in a carrier. I had no ride at the time so we jumped in a taxi and luckily I got a very compassionate cat loving driver. I had a small wait because the vet was PACKED(it's a great place and one of the only(maybe even only)open on Sunday. He barely moved and at some points during the wait I thought he was gone. Once in back they took him out of the carrier and he tried to stand up but couldn't so he sat then laid on his side. I did have the vet give me his opinion just in case we could save him but he said Caesar was ready. He said Caesar was about 10yrs old(this adds to my suspicions that someone dumped him there), maybe older and had definitely been through some tough times. He was also missing some teeth and now appeared to have multiple organs failing.The vet said he didn't have much longer and wouldn not have lasted through the next 24hrs I held Caesar until he passed and I will also be getting his ashes back. He was a very loving kitty and would run up to me when I called him. Rest little Caesar. Thanks again everyone.

I'm very sorry for your loss. Caeser was lucky to have a compassionate person like you to accompany him in his last hours.

You are that cat's angel and he knew it. He knew you were the one person who would be able to help him cross the bridge gently and with love. It sounds to me like he waited for you. He wanted you to be with him when he started his journey. I'm so sorry for your loss.

I'm so sorry for your loss, Caesar loved you very much for taking care of him and for not letting him suffer at the end. He sounds like a wonderful cat that lived a hard life, and then he meant you, someone to care for him and to love him as he should have been loved. I'll pray for you both, you will surely be blessed for your compassion and going above and beyond what many would not have done. Please know that sweet boy is at peace now and your wonderful tribute will make sure he is known to others and will never be forgotten, he deserves no less. Mourn as you should, but try to celebrate the love you two shared and know he will live on forever in your heart and memories as long as you live. RIP sweet Caesar!

Thank you so much for taking care of Ceasar!  Most people just ignore stray cats; even those who have their own.  He knew he was loved & cared for by you.  I am so sorry you lost him!  He is probably looking down on you with love & thanks for the care you gave him.

RIP Little Ceasar; I hope your next life is better.

I'm so sorry for your loss.  Bless you for taking care of Caesar.  Every cat deserves to have someone special like you in their life, and I am glad that he did.

Today I tried to stay busy with work but truthfully I thought of Caesar all day. I knew my break time would be difficult because I would have to return to the house Caesar was at. I was getting anxious about going but once I got there I saw Twinkie and the rest of the little gang and I knew they were counting on me for fresh water and food. It wasn't the same without my Caesar but there's still much work to be done and more kitties to help. I know my Caesar would want me to but I do miss him so. I glad I found him when I did because we had a very bad storm last night and I would have been worried sick about him and I don't think his little weak body would have made it through. I will think of him every day.
