I got to see my cat briefly today. He seems okay. His eyes are alert and he seems to have a lot of strength left in him. But we took him to a specialist who said he has a heart condition and that his prognosis is poor. It's very difficult for both me and my wife to hear this. He's like our child. He's going to be spending several more days in the vet hospital undergoing treatment. If there's no medical hope left, I want him to spend his final days at home where he's loved. I think the worst thing in the world (for either animals or humans) is to pass away feeling alone and abandoned. I've owned a number of pets in my lifetime. But I've never felt so attached to an animal like I have to this guy. He's got personality and spunk. All I can do now is pray for his recovery.
