My little cat (her fighting weight is five pounds) had been losing weight. I took her to the vet, to find she weighed just a few ounces over four pounds, and that she has kidney disease.
They kept her for three days, giving her IV fluids and appetite stimulating meds, and she's home now. She's eating, but she's still awfully skinny. I have to continue the appetite stimulation meds and also give her subcutaneous fluids. The vet says she could live another year or another month, it's hard to say at this point.

I am so sorry. :(
Thank you -- she's about 14 years old, so it's kind of to be expected, I guess, but we're still sad
Ugh so sad! I hate this part of being a pet owner. I just want my cats to live forever!
I’m so sorry. I know you all are great cat parents tho. ❤️

Yes, me too! Why can't they just live forever?
For those rules allowing dogs outdoors 32-90F, my polar dog, three quarters fur,
requires 15-75. I dare those schoolmarms try to bring him in. Such dogs have
survived a year at the poles alone.
My dog also never wants to come inside!
