I have a little Calico who is almost 16 years old. The past few months, she has shown signs of kidney troubles. Then this week she has been hiding under our bed and has drastically cut down what she's eating and drinking. Now today she hisses and growls if I try to pick her up or pet her. She let me scratch her head for about 5 minutes, and purred a little, but that was all.
I'm taking her to the vet in an hour and I'm devastated because I'm almost certain he will say she needs to be put to sleep. I know she's just a cat, but I love her, and she's been with me half my life. She has seen us bring both our boys home from the hospital, and has been a part of the family. She used to try and groom our oldest when he was a baby.
She's just the sweetest little cat, and I'm going to miss her so much. Maybe I will get unexpectedly good news at the vet. But I really don't think so.
I'd love so much for her to run in here and rub all over my feet like she does.
I'm not sure of the purpose of this thread--I guess I just needed to write all that down.
