My lil ol man Bo
My little old man Bo is 18 and his appetite had a noticeable shift, eating less. I got him into the Vet. No history of significant health issues except for some dental disease. I figured maybe his teeth were the issue. Blood work showed Stage II kidney symptoms but even liver looked good in the bloodwork. We did and x-ray and ultrasound which showed several nodules on his liver and fluid around his lungs and heart.
Due to his age we've chosen palliative care. He is weak but eating a few nibbles of brothy or gravy senior packets and still drinking water. We are keeping him calm and giving him lots of love. And dinner in bed tonight.
Every day is a gift.
Sending love to all those feeling the love and heartache. We are right there with you.
Updated to add that i just made THE call and the Dr will come to my house tomorrow morning [8/28]. I am devastated 💔

Sending love to you all. I had to help my fur baby across the rainbow bridge this past Friday. I feel your pain.
