We lost Tess today.
Dunno what happened; he'd been doing good for the last few days, and even as late as noon. Stepdaddeh came up to feed her around three, couldn't find her, but he did eventually find her at the bottom the the stairs. We think she might have had a stroke and then fallen down the stairs, because she had very little control over her body and her head was twisted around and locked in place.
She was a fighter, though, and she stayed with us long enough for mom and I to get home from work, but she wasn't registering much, was breathing pretty shallow, and was making those cat noises that cats only make when they're getting close. Same noises Ratbert made in his last couple hours.
We're getting her cremated so we can put her with her brother and Rocky.
16 years old, born on me and momma's laps. Going to miss the hell out of her.
