:cry2 My little guy died today after living for almost 10 years. He passed a bladder stone on Sunday last weekend and I thought the worst was behind him, he seemed to be a happier little guy on Monday, but this morning things looked like they went back to bad. I knew all the symptoms as to what was going on, no eating or drinking, straining to pee looking all hunched up. I called the vet for an emergency visit and I had a sad feeling things were not good.
When we got to the vet and she felt his body, she could feel the stone about 2 inches up. She offered to put him under and try to pull it out of his urethra if it was possible. I told her we should check on a xray if there was more to come before we went ahead with all that. Sure enough she said he had a huge bladder stone that he would not be passing. My only option was to either go through with surgery at his old age (which the vet did not want to really do) or to let him go. As much as it pained me to make this decision, I decided to let my handsome love go with God and hope to meet with him again. I am so sad. He was my little sunshine. I am going to miss him so much. :rip: My little guy.
