He had been diagnosed with HCM the summer before. That is a terminal diagnosis, but it is unclear how long you have with your cat. When I went to the vet again in July this year, just before we went on vacation, she actually was surprised that he was still alive. That was a reality check for us, as we hadn’t realized how serious this is, and that the prospects were this grim.//test.hoffrichter.no/blog/2020/03/06/Fri, 06 Mar 2020 00:00:00 +0000//test.hoffrichter.no/blog/2020/03/06/That Friday feeling Teddy captures it perfectly, without the need for any words.//test.hoffrichter.no/blog/2020/02/your-face-when/Wed, 19 Feb 2020 00:00:00 +0000//test.hoffrichter.no/blog/2020/02/your-face-when/For some reason, Teddy really, really, really likes to play with the water in the sink in our bathroom. To the point, where Tor Livar has to fill the sink every morning in some sort of a routine. I went into the bathroom now, he came very hopeful with me, but there was no water in the sink - so he had to lie down dejectedly next to the bathtub.//test.hoffrichter.no/blog/2013/lily/Mon, 25 Feb 2013 00:00:00 +0000//test.hoffrichter.no/blog/2013/lily/Since new years, it has been clear that the time Benni had left was quite limited, and on February 6th, 2013, I had to let him go and put him to sleep. When I visited the vet that day, it was apparent that each additional day would have been just filled with pain for him. Maybe I’ll write something to that whole mess in a future post, but at the moment, that isn’t possible for me, yet.
