Next he started not eating. He likes me fussing over him so this morning we "slole" a couple of small tins of cat food from Rhineheart, and I hand fed him the wet mushy food. And he's really perked up with more food in him. Last night I hand fed him small cubes of steak. So we are buying one day at a time.
When he is good he looks great, but when he doesn't look good I know he is on borrowed time.

Sorry to hear, Bill. You are now entering the toughest days of 4-legged companionship. Give your boy a hug or 10 from us, please.....
