Gabby & Caspian

Gabby is crying about Caspian, naturally. She just told me, "Caspian has always been my pretend prince."

Caspian Died

Robert just called from the vet's, and Caspian had to be put to sleep. He had liver failure and was dying anyway.

I'm in tears.

Our Cat Caspian Is Sick

Our almost-eight-year-old cat, my favorite pet out of all the pets I've ever owned, is very sick. We had an appointment for him to be seen tomorrow, but he was so sick that I was worried he wouldn't make it until tomorrow. I convinced the vet to squeeze him in to be seen today. The news is not good. My husband has now had to take him to their vet hospital branch for tests. If he has what the doctor suspects, it has a 100% mortality rate and I will lose my beloved cat.

I think I'm going to lose my cat, but I am still holding out hope that the tests will find that something else, something treatable, is wrong with him.
