I said goodbye to my best friend yesterday. Unfortunately also happened to be my birthday but on one hand I'm glad we got to spend the day together. I refused to go out because I was scared it was time... she was diagnosed with Stage 4 Kidney failure 2 months ago and then got diagnosed with FIP. She was fighting so hard these past few weeks but her body just couldn't do it anymore. Her government name was Anarchy but she went by Rocky and she was about 10-11 years old. She was a foster fail that came from a horrible hoarding situation after a fire 3 years ago.
She was perfectly sweet. Always got compliments from vet visits and had notes like "she's so sweet" on her vet visits. She loved to cuddle against my partner and I. Before she got sick she was super polite about asking for food and would raise her paw to touch us and meow. She stole our food multiple times because her appetite was just that insatiable. Unfortunately that changed a lot on the last few days but we all tried so hard to help make this work. She had daily Sub-q fluids, Varenzin, amoxicilin, and medication for FIP but she always tried to keep being herself and purred anytime we held her and pet her head. She would even snuggle in for forehead kisses. It's incredibly hard right now but I wanted to share my beautiful girl. She was very friendly so I hope she finds company until the day we meet again.
