After 15 very happy years together, we had to put our beautiful Simba to sleep today due to a terminal illness. I am fully aware that soon enough the good memories will overwrite the bad ones, but still I can’t even begin to describe the immense sense of grief right now.

Sorry, I don’t mean to put a downer on everyone, but they say sharing such emotions does help with the grieving process, and just by writing this I feel a little bit better..

Sleep well my beautiful boy. If there is an afterlife after all I have no doubt you’ll be waiting for us.

Very sorry to hear this T & P - sadly I skimmed the thread earlier to do a quick report on my vet visit and didn't register this awful news - my apologies for bimbling cheerfully through the thread right after you posted, I would never do that deliberately.

Simba was extremely beautiful and loved, and you must be devastated. My condolences.

Thank you- and please no need to apologise. I hope yours recover swiftly and that there won't be much snot to wipe up in the meantime :)

So sorry to hear this. He looks a beauty, and 15 years is a good long time to have enjoyed his company. I hope you have plenty of lovely memories of him.
 
Getting antibiotics into Sonic is horrendous. He is (thank the gods) eating most of them in some wet food twice a day. He is such a slow eater though, always has been. I have tried pilling him and he turns into what seems to be a giant serpent, wriggling all over the place, and ended up on my head at one point. My cats always used to be fairly easy to medicate but I think years and experience has made them more wise to it. He will be medicated whether he likes it or not however, his health is important.

It doesn't help that I am allergic to penicillin and am not supposed to handle his pills...

How to Induce Your Cat To Kill You For Realz This Time pt 785992. It's particularly sadistic that the monster big cat head masks have the eyes modelled as large and dilated (i.e. threatening or aggressive in cat body language, surely?).
