It has past a year ππππ since I had to put-him-down at the wet π. The tears has come a bit here and there for the past year.Β More ofter after Christmas 24… I don’t know why.Β
Today the 23rd, on the day, one year ago we went to the wet because his breathing was really bad ππ.
So thankful for the time I got with him! He gave me so much love ππββ¬π
To write about him, and my tears streaming like someone turn on the tap… I miss him πππ.
SILVER; My Birthday boy would have been 10 years today ππββ¬ππππ. And it’s been 5,5 months since I let him fall asleep and never wake up again ππππββ¬. Always loved. Always with me.
So thankful for the time I got with him πππββ¬π
Today’s pictures.
After work I managed to both do some grocery shopping and sew a bit while I made dinner π. Yet my brain is heavy and have a hard time to relax right now π.
On top of this I started my day with a doctor appointment π for increased hotflushes and side effects π…
After some days with breathing difficulties and periodes off and on did I call the wet today. Got an appointment 12:30pm. I was lucky to have a friend who could drive us. Silver was good in the car, talked a bit mostly in the tunnels – logical – he never liked tunnels. But he didn’t have a problem to be in a car as long as I was next to him in his cage. πππ.
Got to the wet. 12:38. Checked his breathing. The wet saw the same as I’ve seen, how hard it was for him to get enough air into his lungs. It was hard to wait and see what it could be… Took a X-ray around 1:30 pm.
This was the result…
When I saw the X-ray it wasn’t hard for me to make a decision for his future. I did not want him to suffer more. I hold him in my arms after the first shot, – regrets I wasn’t with him right after the X-ray to calm him down – but just the fact I could hold him and calm him down, feel his breathing calm down when he was with me helped both me and him πππ. I told him to sleep, that I was there with him, that I loved him so much, that we had good years. That I will miss him, continue talk to him for a long time. I said good night and that he could sleep now, that he will get to a better place without pain πππ. I hold him for about ten minutes. Kissed him and showed him my love. A good memory I have in my mind now.
2016 – 2019, Oslo, Silver-boy.
What have happened and when is hard to say. But he is now in Cat-heaven with other cats he grew up with πππ.
He came to me in April 2016 one and a half years old. He become my boy and has been like a child. He learned skills, learned to walk in leash 4 years old, he always waited on me after my workhours at the door or lately in the window where he could see me coming home πππ. I have so many good memories with him πππ therefore will it be so empty without him πππ.
Here is some pictures of my boy Silver.

He didn’t like when I went out to work, to the grocery store or just without him. He wanted me home or go for a walk. He was strong until this last month… how it happened will never be answered and that’s okay because he is in a much better place now.
Silver had so much patience with me β€οΈand cared for meπ in his way, showed his love to me by laying next to me in the couch or on the top of the couch πππ. I love him and miss him so much…

We have had a rough weekend π’π’ that continue until Tuesday…
Friday July 21st; I’ve been on the phone to different veterinary clinics during the last 12 hours to get advice. And if he get werse I have to take him to a veterinary clinic. During the night or Saturday morning.
The night towads Saturday 22nd of July; I have checked him every 2nd hour this night, so now I feel like someone drove over me with a big machine π€ͺππ΄π΄π΄.
I will try to sleep a bit.
I am laying so I can watch him from my bed. He slept in his favorite spot in the bathroom, on the top of the water tank is like a shelf and there he has his “tower bed”.
Saturday 22nd, at 1.30pm I went to the farmacia to buy pipette syringes so I could force him some water, which the veterinary told I should try. I were also looking for litter byt didn’t find any π.
You know the feeling (if you have a cat at home) when you really need litter and you haven’t slept as you should, you go on autopilot…
We went to bed aroun 01am and he came to sleep in my bed, which he hasn’t since May this year becauce of Aslan. Aslan woke me up around 04.30am was hungry & playful. And Silver sat up and looking on me but I didn’t get it. But after I put my head on the pillow again I realized it! Silver was hungry ππππ. So I gave gim soaked dry food so he could both drink and eat. Becauce I thought about that – during Saturday evening, it might be his teeths, that he has pain in them?!?.
Sunday 23rd was better. He showed good signs all day. He ate better, drank better and started to sleep more normal times and used the litterbox. β€ Silver <3.
Monday 24th has been a bumpy ride for both me and Silver π¦ . He has been eaten okay, taken malt with vitamines but not drinking so well π¦ He has been awake aproxy every 4th hour as normal <3. He is still fighting <3.
But I have to say, and I have talked to him about it cause he has been with me for 7 long good years, that if he is to sick and will suffer before he gets better I rather “put him down”. I don’t want him to suffer. I can’t see him in pain. It hurts me too. I will miss him so much if I have to, but it is for him I’ll do it. Health first! It will be so empthy without him β€ . Even if I’ll have Aslan a bit longer then I have to give Aslan away too or put him down too…I have been reacting on Aslans fur in the way I have issues to breath. Here it is again. Health first.
I phoned a vet to get an appointment for Silver (today) Monday 24th, non had an appointment before earliest Tuesday 25th 2pm. I am praying every awake moment that Silver will fight as much as he can. He has been my “boy” for 7 years… I love him so much.
Tuesday 25th, we had an appointment 2pm, got there by friends 1.55pm. The vet checked Silver and he showed pain in the stomache. So they gave Silver some sedative medicine that made him tired and nauseous, so he threw up 3 times (poor thing).
The sedative medicine has started to kick in.
They took an MR. Luckly it didn’t show any bad. Then they checked the temperatur (normal temperatur at cat’s is between 38-39Β°C) Silver had 39,6Β°C π’π’
Here we are outside the clinic.
I were worried all the time for him, becauce he is my “boy”. I have had him since he was 1,5 y.o. I would be destroyed if I lost him now. Thank you Lord for let me have a bit longer. I have prayed so many prayers for my Silver those last five day’s π he has been fighting.
He will be on antibiotics for 7 day’s from today πππ.
Here he is laying resting after he ate some dry cat food 4:39pm.
We were home around 3.30pm ish and say, Aslan was happy! Silver will be “a bit groggy” after the sedative medicine most all day today π’π’ but he is alive, living, breathing πππ.
