I am so sorry. You must be in shock. God, I don't know what to say. He was a beautiful cat. I am so sorry. You are in our prayers.
awe.. thanks. its been a month now since it happened so seeing this thread again is making me cry and i miss him and so does willie.. sorry to hear about what happened to your spiff.. how awful.. i am assuming it was heart related since it happened so quick.. I didnt have a clue anything was wrong.... he was fine.. just shocking to see it happen...Originally Posted by GirlSetsFiyah
I'm so, so sorry this happened to you. Could it have been possible heart failure? My boy Spliff passed away in Dec from hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (enlarged heart, basicaly), and we never saw any symptoms until he had his first bout of heart failure and survived, but the day he passed, he was normal, we were sharing a muffin, and all of a sudden he collapsed. It happened very quickly. Just know in your heart that your boy is thankful you found him when you did and tried to save him, he was very lucky to have you as an owner, and please be at peace knowing you did all you could have for him. He passed peacefully in his home with you and his other kitty friends around, not in a scary hospital alone, or without you there. You did everything you could, and you should be proud.
They are indoor- outdoor cats.. but Miss Kitty didnt go out much and if she did she would only go out on the porch for like 5 minutes and come right back in.. I dont have any close neighbors so she could not have been poisoned.. i just dont know.. I opened the closet to get my coat out and she meowed and tried to go in and i said no-no Miss Kitty.. I shut the door, put my coat on and heard a thump.. she had her little paws at her ears. her tongue fell out.. her eyes were fully dilated and then she went limp. I tried everything possible believe you me.. she was gone in a minute.... freaky is all i knowOriginally Posted by Carolina
Oh wow... I am so sorry for your loss....
I am thinking... Is there a possibility of poisoning? Do your cats go outside? Are the neighbors putting rat poison around?
This is too much of a coincidence... I never seen this happen before...
I am so sorry... RIP Miss Kitty
