She somehow got a maggot embedded in her neck - maybe through a sting by a bug - and after it was removed she did better for a while but now has had renal/kidney failure due to toxins in her body and is probably going to be put to sleep tomorrow if the vet can't save her.
Just heard today - after the last procedure, Sydney got worse so they had to put her down.
Yesterday, when I thought about it, it was making me feel really sad all day - I kept messing up small things in my lessons and I wasn't really all there. I wasn't overly emotional or breaking down every five minutes, just really sad about it. And then I would get mad for being so sentimental - it seemed a little embarrassing for a guy in his 30s to be broken up about a cat. Then I realized that it's not embarrassing at all to feel something when an animal you cared for has died. So yeah, I'm sad about it.
My cat died in Minnesota while I was here in Oregon. It was really wierd because no one really understands why you are sad and you feel dumb telling them. This July was the first time I was home since he died and it was odd. I went to look for him forgetting he wasn't there.
I guess what I am saying is I'm sorry and I know what you are going through.

She's dying? What do you mean she's dying? What's wrong with her?

No!
Matt - I'm so sorry.
I'm sorry too. I hope it wasn't painful. : (
Oh Matt...I'm so sorry to hear that.
I wish there was something to say that would make this easier for you, but I guess there really isn't.
I'm crossing my fingers for a last-minute miracle - but in any circumstance, my thoughts are with you.

I'm so sorry, Matt.
Oh Matty I'm so sorry.:(
Matt... I don't have the words, just I'm sorry.
I feel closer to my dogs than I do to most people. I've never understood it when people criticize relationships with pets. It can't be described.
A candle lit for you today, my friend.
Mattie! I'm so sorry about your kitty.
We are here in MN and it's so weird that you aren't here!
Hugs,
June bug
