argillaceous, there aren't enough hug emoticons I could display right now. Sadly, our kitty took a turn for the worse yesterday evening. it was clear just how badly he was suffering and we made the call. The vet wanted to admit him come Monday morning and put a feeding tube in him and do shots to rehydrate him quickly. If you could have seen him last night I couldn't allow him to go on any longer like that. He was suffering, bad.
It was a horrible decision to have to make.
My thoughts are with you argillaceous.
