lampard10 Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 Tim passed away this evening peacefully at the pets hospital. He had chronic liver disease coupled with old age. He rallied during the week, but it got too much for him. I am happy for him as I remember him as a happy, vibrant family member that everyone loved, not the skeleton he had become. R.I.P.

sbk Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 Lampy, so sorry to hear about your loss. Our cat is 15 as well, (local cat) and seems to be doing well considering her age. I just hope she does well for a little bit longer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mogoso Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 Tim passed away this evening peacefully at the pets hospital. He had chronic liver disease coupled with old age. He rallied during the week, but it got too much for him. I am happy for him as I remember him as a happy, vibrant family member that everyone loved, not the skeleton he had become. R.I.P. TIM I feel really bad for your loss, I'm quite fond of cats, and I still miss the last one I had who passed away 18 years ago. I keep pictures of him up in my home just to remember what a great companion he was. Once again sympathies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
