I got Sandy and Dusty from a friend's litter when they were 7 weeks old. We were there the day they were born and picked them. They would have been 13 years old in July. They were extremely different - Sandy was outgoing, a tabby/siamese mix and Dusty is a quiet Maine Coon type (2 brothers). Sandy has always been very healthy - catching live animals and bringing them in, etc. Last Friday night he was as active as usual, had treats before bed like normal. He didn't come for morning treats but he sometimes does that. Saturday afternoon I spotted him sleeping in the living room floor where he usually does and went to pet him. He was cold and stiff. I can't believe he's dead! Any ideas about why a seemingly healthy cat would just die? I am heartbroken. He was everything to me. Dusty has cried a little and wandered around his grave but he's doing ok. My daughter and I are devastated at the loss and the not knowing why. Thank you for any advice or opinions.
