Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / January 2008Purr for a D-Pet, please. :(
Max, our aging dog (14 - 15 years old), is in poor health. For the past week, he's been hurking up about 1/2 of what he eats... and he's gotten to the point where he can barely stand (he's unsteady, and ends up looking like Bambi did the first time he walked on ice - unless Max is on carpeting, then he's OK, mostly). I think he might have had a stroke during one of his hurking episodes, but he has lost a lot of weight. He did eat 1/4 a small can of puppy food (more nutritious than adult dog food) last night, and the rest of it this morning. Nothing's come back up, but nothing's come out the other end either for the past 2 days. DH is currently bathing him (he pee'd himself during the night) and we will be taking him to TED for a check and consultation to see if this might be "his time" :(  Signature-- The ONE and ONLY lefthanded-pathetic-paranoid-psychotic-sarcastic-wiseass-ditzy former-blonde in Bloomington!

I remember this time so well. I think of how Scooter was when she wet herself. The stress of knowing she had done something she shouldn't have it what helped me make my decision. She would look at me as to say "I am sooo sorry". When she hurled, she would do the same thing. Was still hard to do what was best for her and not me. > Purrs on the way. > Ann [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] >> be taking him to TED for a check and consultation to see if this might be >> "his time" :( > I am so sorry for you and your dog.

Bear does the same thing if he commits an indoor violation. However, if it is a matter of throwing up, he seems to feel no guilt at all. He looks curiously at what he has wrought and then walks away. And the cats look at it and yowl for me to clean it up. And I clean it up.
