MAGA MAN
Let's go Brandon!
Last night I got home from our weekly trip to the mountains to find the cat howling in the garage. He managed to get from outside through the cat door to the garage but not the cat door from the garage to the rest of the house.
A little background: he turned 16 four months ago and his behavior has been changing for about the last year. He started shitting in the house so I confined him to a little room that I built in the garage where he could access the outside. That was last winter and I thought he was near the end then. After about three months I gave him the run of the house again and he was OK until the last month or so, shitting in the study. So I confined him to the kitchen and garage. Then he started eating the dogs food and puking that up so I set the dog up in a separate area. He's lost a lot of weight, puking a lot, obviously getting near the end.
Back to last night. He was very weak, and crapped blood on himself. When I came up to him he stood up and fell over like a rag doll, tongue out. I brought him upstairs and cleaned him up. He wouldn't take water. I was positive that he'd be dead in the morning. Although I did get a quiet purr out of him by holding his head and rubbing his ears like he likes. I set him up on a towel in the study.
This morning he walked out of the study, through the den and into the kitchen and stuck his head in the water bowl. He was there for about three hours and would take a drink once in a while. I let him on on a fresh towel cause he's still leaking shit. He stayed next to the bowl all day and is still there.
