Title: Fabes has gone to the bridge
Post by: candyshandy on September 30, 2008, 10:21:18 AM

My beautiful boy has gone.  He hadn't eaten for 2 days and crying through the night. :'(

I took him to the vets this morning and he was impacted again and the vet thought he could feel a lump in his tummy.  His kidney levels have also doubled (test results from last week)

I took the decision that this was his time, he has been so brave over the last 2 years and his quality of life was great but not today. :'(

Bye bye my munchkin me and the fluffs will miss you

xx

I'm so sorry, CS.

Fabes knew a lot of love in his life, and that's the part he'll have remembered when he passed over. :hug: :hug:

RIP, Fabes. Look out for Toby and Parsley and let them know I miss them.

Your mum did really well the last few months Fabes and you had a fantastic quality of life, I know you'll be up there purring now and pain free.  Solly and FooFoo will miss you and so will a lot of people including me, make sure you find Perdy for your mum and Nana Wendy and give him a big head butt.

 :RIP: Little man and sweet dreams, xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I'm so sorry for your loss of Fabes.  Had you had him a long time?  I'm sure he pain free and playing just like a kitten now over at the bridge.  I know how hard it is to loose a pet, as they truly are members of our families. :hug:

RIP Fabes

Thank you all for your kind messages.  Its been a tough day but I know deep down that it was the right time for my beautiful boy.

For those of you who don't know Fabes' story I adopted him with Solly 5 years ago and they were my first cats.  Foofoo joined later and then this weekend my new baby Bam Bam.

Fabes was diagnosed with Hypercalceamia approx 18 months ago and developed kidney failure.  He was well looked after by Uni of Liverpool and my own vets and for some time I have been administring various meds and fluids at home which he coped with remarkably well.  In all his vet bills came to approx £10k which I was luckily insured for.

I will miss my boy sooooo much and at the moment Solly and Foofoo are too - they have been a bit withdrawn all day.  Bam Bam is oblivious to everything luckily and I think his 'madness' will help us all.

He was a lucky boy to have someone who cared for him and looked after him as well as you did  :Luv:
RIP brave Fabes.

I am so sorry his time has come CS, but you gave him every chance, and allowed him to go peacefully and with dignity when it was his time. RIP little one.
