MY Angel

Two weeks ago a stopped over at my parents place and was sitting on the deck with my two cats, Halo and Angel, as they sunned themselves. Angel came up to me for a tail pull...yes she likes that, she's kinda odd...I noticed that her gums were yellow then with the light of the sun I noticed that the inside of her ears were bright yellow as well!!! All her skin was yellow!!! Jaundice :(

Over the next week she lost ALL her body weight, she's a small cat as it is but when I saw her next she was a skeleton. I hated petting her, her back had nothing but fur on it and her hips were sticking out worse than I've ever seen on an animal. She wouldn't eat or drink and hid in my bedroom :(

During the second week she started drinking the liquid from canned food and I've been giving her water with a syringe but the jaundice has gone too far and she's just wasting away into nothing. Mom came over last night and said she's not walking right anymore and hardly coming downstairs again....she told me to come say goodbye this weekend.

When I moved back home at 20 I brought Halo, my cat I had since she was a day old...someone left her in a parking lot in a box! Mom thought Halo needed a friend! She saw an SPCA was closing in Port Alberni and shipping kittens to Vancouver on the news so she went and lined up to get Halo a friend. There were only a few kitties left by the time she got there and some how she connected with Angel. She's a crazy cat, she hardly ever blinks...she'll stare at you like she's on E...and if she's walking by and you call her name she makes her tail into a question mark! She also will rub your leg until you pet her and will keep coming back forever if you pull her tail so that her back legs come off the floor.

Mom brought home Angel and she walked into the office, I didn't want to go near her cause "If she's not staying here I don't want to pet her she's too cute"....for the next while Angel slept under my blanket tucked into my tummy like a baby.

I'm reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally going to miss my lil E-Tarded cat, whenever I spend the night there she always has to wake me up or not let me sleep by pacing across me. When I'm having quiet time with my fat cat Halo...Angel always has to jump up to make Halo jealous and leave me. I will say goodbye to get tomorrow and tell her how much I love her, I hope she understands.
