Title: RIP Simba in care of Canterbury CP PTS today.. a very old gent, with huge heart
Post by: Canterbury_cats (Sharon) on June 09, 2010, 15:08:36 PM: Simba was sadly PTS today after become more frail and having a job to walk.. He had first stages kidney failure and obv had had a very hard live. The vet put him at least 16 yrs pls and being a pedigree Abby he was probably in his younger days much admired. I do know that his foster Ros was deeply touched by Simba and his loving ways... He never really put on weight despite various vet visits...
In the last few days or wks he has become incontinant and was unable to get around. We gave him 6wks or so of love and TLC and he even went into the garden for some sunshine on warm days.
Simba lovely face adorns one of our branch Greeting cards for this yr and we will remember him, as we do all our special cats. but i think this old fellow had just had enough . This was after all his 3rd time in rescue all for no fault of his own...
RIP Simba i will remember your purrs!

RIP Simba, find loads of lovely friends on the Bridge

RIP you gorgeous fella. Play hard at the bridge xxxx

Sharon told me yesterday that despite steroid injections, he was steadily losing weight since he came into care instead of gaining it. Its sad but I'm sure Roz gave him a good 6 weeks.
