Our cat is almost 16 years old. her name is Minnie we adopted her when i was around 7/8 years old & i am now 23. she was my first cat & we had adopted her because i had been begging for years for a kitty. she is literally a family member to me. i would do anything for her.
she developed IBD around 5 years ago & we have tried pretty much every medication & tried to switch her food. the first 3 or so years it was manageable but then around 2 years ago it started getting worse & worse. she has diarrhea & can’t control it anymore.
ever since last week she leaks blood / poop when she sleeps & when she’s awake. we have to give her baths pretty much every other day. she has always been a small cat, but she lost 2 pounds within the last 6 months. she is now 4 lbs.
she is skin & bones, eyes are sunken in & about 2 days ago she stopped eating. she’ll eat 2 bites & then stop. ): she’s also been acting very weird & agitated the past 2 days (won’t stop meowing & pacing) i can tell she’s in so much pain, she can barely lay down.
my mom said it’s time, & while i agree, i can’t help but feel horrible about this whole thing. she’s been through my whole life with me & i wish she could just talk & say what was hurting or why she won’t eat. i love her so much & i can’t stop sobbing. thank you for listening.
are we doing the right thing?
