Goodbye, Silver

I told my friend it will be hard to move around knowing I won't bump into Silver anymore.

I brought him to the Vet yesterday because I saw him swaying whenever he tries to move and relax o the floor. Come to think of it he was just trying to be near me because he would sit or lay every time I would change location. He still wasn't eating or drinking despite the meds he was taking. I tried different food for him to even have a small bite of something, but none was working, I knew I had to look for something else that he'd like. Little did I know that deep inside he was really hurting. He would go to his water bowl, stares at it for a while then rests his chin on the edge of the bowl but not drink. He would still meow, although I know he was just making an effort just to talk to me.... On Saturday morning he even woke me up by jumping on the bed waking me up. 

I guess he really did love me after all. I have so many stories about him, but for sure I'll miss his talkative mouth every single day. I Love You Silver!!!!

Caregiver

It's 6:53am, Sunday, Aug 9... It could have been more days back and I hadn't noticed Silver's ear turning yellow. He's sick, we went to the Vet yesterday and he says it's curable, and hoping his medicine will help him improve his appetite with food and water.

A few months back, almost 1 year ago I said I'd be more active here, documenting my everyday, especially my activities with Silver. Well, now here I am, but all his antics would be stories until he gets well and be back to his sweet self again.

His body was shrinking, I've been noticing it. When I got back last Sunday i noticed he didn't touch his food (I stayed overnight at my mom's house the night before) ....(oh my, just in...7:03am...he went to his water bowl and went for a few drink 😘..and went back under my bed...Bless you my Baby) thank you Lord Jesus,Mama Mary, St Joseph! .... Going back, and he was drinking from the pail in the bathroom. This went on until Friday. I tried hand-feeding him his dry food, he nibble few pellets, only eating what he liked. Then Wednesday evening was the only time he voluntarily got up and ate his food. Thursday was not a good thing. Friday evening I bought wet food, and sampled himself of Shiba, but that's it. 

Then yesterday I just couldn't bear seeing him just laying on the floor, not meowing when I'm about to enter the room, or not brushing beside my legs, or blocking the computer when I'm working... What I mostly couldn't bear is seeing him not eat and drink, that means he's not using the litter box at all! 

He went again for his 2nd sip of water (I got it on video 😄) and tasted his food for a licks (need to work on that today) ....I already gave him his antibiotics and syrup for this morning....Hope before our 2nd syrup intake today he'd ate too 😊 (10:55am)
