Our old friend Brat cashed it in yesterday. He went into a tail spin of weight loss a couple months ago and could not keep kibble down. The vet has kept him on antibiotics for a kidney infection for more than six weeks, but the weight loss continued and his kidneys were failing. He had a hard time keeping good canned food down in his last week, even though his appetite was good. He may have had cancer, or it could have been an infection, but the old boy did not have the strength to fight whatever it was. He sure was a good buddy, and was a joy to have around with his outgoing personality.

And I am sorry for your loss of a family member.
Our prayers will be for you and he.
Good friends, gone too soon. Sorry to hear.
Sorry to hear that. It is tough to lose a companion. He is catching mice in kitten-land about now.
Thank You! Brat came to us an in injured, hungry feral cat more than fourteen years ago, and he was a special friend. He did like that phonograph!
14, wow. Good run and y'alls' love for him is evident. Good on you, bless the lil rat, as I call my 3 rescues.
