This past week my cat has been getting sicker and sicker. He’s peeing all over the place, he’s stopped eating, he doesn’t move from his litter box and just overall isn’t like himself. He’s 15 now, rescued him 2 years ago off the street. I love this cat so much, he’s been with me through some of the roughest patches of my life and he’s the sweetest boy. He’s never scratched me on purpose, he’s always up to nap with me, and over all just a huge goof. I took him to the doc today and they said he’s got kidney disease, and though it’s mild, at his age it’s very likely to progress. He’s home now with a ton of medication and Iv bag , but he looks like he’s in so much pain and it hurts me so much. I’ve had so many intense panic attacks, and I’ve haven’t been able to sleep much since I’m so worried about losing him. I know what I got into rescuing a elderly cat, but it still hurts so much. I’ve almost had to call an ambulance because I almost passed out with intense palpitations just before taking my cat to the vet. It hurts even more that I may have to euthanize him. I can’t stand to see him like this. He’s slowly starting to stumble and waddle when he moves, and he looks very weak. I don’t know what to do, I’ve lost many people in my life, and grief never gets easier. I gave him the best life I could for his last years, I spoiled him like a baby. I’m happy I could do that, but I just want a few more years with him. I’m broke from all the treatments and medication, but I think it’s worth it, dispite putting me in a really difficult situation.
