Chloe: happy old age
Our Chloe is getting old and frail. We've got her on medication
for an overactive thyroid, but there seems to be something else the vet hasn't found - not good about using the litter tray any more. Maybe a very slow growing diffuse bowel cancer. But. She's been a timid wee thing for most of her life - probably raised in a kitten mill. For years she didn't really perceive people as other creatures and just interacted with our feet, as if that was the biggest non-feline entity she wanted to believe in. And she was suffering for a long time with dental problems before we got that diagnosed and sorted out. And now she's the happiest she's ever been. She is always snuggled up with somebody - if it isn't Ollie or Marblecake it'll be me or Marion. She's taken to stretching out on my chest and purring herself to sleep, something she never did before. She puts me to bed every night by tasting my fingers and says good morning with a huge rumbling purr at point blank range. Still bounces around and plays with toys a bit. I didn't expect her to ever get this close. I don't suppose she'll be with us for much longer but I'm going to miss her terribly. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- e m a i l : j a c k @ c a m p i n . m e . u k Jack Campin, 11 Third Street, Newtongrange, Midlothian EH22 4PU, Scotland mobile 07800 739 557 http://www.campin.me.uk Twitter: JackCampin |
