Elsie came downstairs in the morning and found him under a piece of furniture meowing constantly. His hind legs were not working. The vet said that he most likely had heart disease and a clot made it into his spinal region disrupting the flow of blood to his hind quarters. He had no pulse in his legs and was very cold. So I made the difficult decision to let him go. There are typically no symptoms that would indicate heart disease, and he had been to the vet for two check ups in the past year and was pronounced "very healthy".
Now our trio...
is down to one....
Unfortunately Miss Daphne has kidney disease and will not be with us much longer. It has been a rough year in the pet area.

That is so sad. I am so sorry to hear about your sweet cat. We had a cat that went very suddenly after being sick with no symptoms and it just doesn't seem right.
sorry. it is so much more difficult to say goodbye to our pets with our children, when their hearts hurt ours hurt double.
