Got a mutt that's really pushing his years, a 15 year old lab-good question mix. He's still in great shape, for his age, can still go on walks, still eats, though is going blind, deaf, and senile. The puppy is probably keeping him on his toes so that he doesn't completely waste away.

Don't expect him to live for another year or two.

Aw that's really sad. I hate any animal dying, and have had a few bunnies that've died during my lifetime. At the moment I have two bunnies, but both are pretty young so hopefully they've got a lot of living to do yet.

My pet pegasus flew away last night. It won't come back.

It's always a soul crushing thing when one grows up and has to be an advlt.

RIP Muis, April 1998 - April 2012

My cat just died in my arms not even an hour ago. When I woke up this morning I found her in the bathroom which was unusual for her. She was slow to move and slow to respond. I already had a bad feeling about it then but I told myself she was just having an off day or something.
She still walked up and down stairs, though slowly, and even ate something, so I wasn't that worried yet.

Around 2pm she was in the kitchen and I tried to see if I could get her interested in some kitty snacks. Instead she tried to walk away and promptly fell over. She tried again but she couldn't keep her balance anymore and that's when I knew that this was bad.
I suspected she has had a stroke this morning and I later found that I was right. She went downhill from that point fast.

We, my mom, brother and me, put her on a pillow on the couch, I stayed with her all the time. For a while she was still conscious enough to know that we were there.

After a while she let everything go (you know) and she started doing this horrible heart wrenching meows. By that point she wasn't really aware of things anymore, she was already too far gone. We wanted to wait for my step dad to come home before we called the vet but then she started to have real trouble breathing, so we called the vet anyway. And of course she arrived only a minute too late, by that time Muis had pretty much choked to death with me holding her. I felt her last heart beats.
But even if the vet had arrived on time there was little she could have done. She said the stroke Muis suffered must have been a really heavy one for things to deteriorate so fast. She had been acting perfectly normal last night.

We plan to bury her tomorrow. We're just glad it happened so fast for her, and that she wasn't outside or alone at night downstairs when it happened. At least we were all with her now, except for my step dad who arrived 20 minutes after she died.
We still have her sister Mikki but I don't think she has noticed anything different yet. She and Muis never really got along.

And she has led a good life. She saw games in everything and I can't remember a single day where she was pissy or in a bad mood.

I guess it was just her time to go. I'll miss you Muis.

^ I'm so sorry. That's awful.
