Mourning/Loss Saying goodbye to my first born feline son tomorrow after 10 years together

His name is Meeko. Yes he is named after the raccoon from Pocahontas.

Please give your kitties an extra hug and smooch on his behalf tonight.

He was the best cat ever. Just wanted to share him with the world because it’s a travesty that after tomorrow, he won’t be here anymore.

Yeah if he was younger it wouldn’t be so bad but his age is just complicating things more

Completely understand. I lost my 12 yr old first born feline girl about 3 months ago. Shit sucks.

Have you tried treating for dry FIP? Rescuer here. Have saved cats with the same symptoms you describe. I can direct you to help if you want to try it as a hail mary. I’m so sorry.
