Wallace is my family cat. My parents got him before i was even born. And considering that I'm the oldest sibling, he is very old. I am only thirteen, and he is about sixteen. But honestly i am so terrified at this point. He was recently diagnosed with kidney failure. Which isn't treatable. I know that its common to lose certain people and pets in life you care about. And i'm sure I'm probably boring you to tears. But really, it's much more than that. This cat... he has helped me so much and i cannot express how much i love him. He got me through the hardest time of my life...He was my reason for living. He has done so much for this family. My dad has such a connection with him... My dad was raised without any animals, so he's not very fond of them... but.. when he found Wallace.. it's like something clicked in his mind... to the point where Wallace was the only exception for a pet. Wallace kept my brother from falling apart... This whole thing... is just so... weird. At least he survived for my thirteenth birthday... which was only a couple days ago.. i just... i don't know what we will do when he's gone. We are gonna put him down in a couple weeks.. Because honestly, me and my family can't watch him starve himself to death. Everyday he eats less and less. He's done so much.. but we haven't even done anything for him.... i just want to do something for him before he leaves. I'm in tears as i write this.. so please, if anyone has any ideas for what i can do for him.. that would really mean a lot... Thank you -A

My cat is sick and he is in the same room as my mom. She has parent/teacher conferences ALL day, meaning I probably will not be able to see my cat until 5:30. I...

Hi...its me ANGEL_SAMA.....
My little kitten died today in the morning 😭😢. I've been crying since the morning.....she was like my child. I loved her so much and now she died of sick...
This might be hard, but if he has kidney failure, that is one of the signs that his organs are shutting down and he may be close to death. If he continues to suffer, consider taking him to the vet and gently putting him to sleep. It might be hard at first, but a peaceful death is better than long suffering pain. I'm so sorry about sweet Wallace though!
ReplyThis hurts to see. I started writing here, the eldest sibling at 14, because my dog who was my best friend and was older than me was hurting too. We do what we can, and that is enough, always. Keep him warm, and let him know how loved he is. I know it hurts, so much. I’m so sorry. Something I did was to write to him and to then read him what I wrote. I used to read him bedtime stories when I was very little, and it felt appropriate to read him stories of how much I loved him. We made sure to move him into the patch of sunlight he liked as often as we could in his last days, took him to the park so he could smell the grass. Sat with him, talked, held him, told him we loved him. What you are experiencing is valid. You love him, and that is so much. I hope you and your family take care, and I hope Wallace knows how much you love him, but from the way you speak of him, I’m sure he does. Take your time to process this. It’s alright to hurt. Give yourself that space, it’s not weak. He means a lot. Please take care in these times - Y
