Well, my 21 year old cat,
Carrera is having a very bad day. I woke up this morning and he was on the floor (he never sleeps there) and was moving really slow, and talking very loud. I was thinking that because it got cold, maybe he has atheist and it is acting up.
He laid in front of a heater on the porch, on his pillow, rear legs extended, but would yell every time I went by, wouldn't take any water when I brought it to him, even when I tried to hand feed it to him, but this evening, he wanted to come in my office, still having trouble walking so I put him in my (his) chair (I get a few inches at the end) and he laid there, talking until I petted him, and every time I get up, he yells. Now it is after 9PM, he is still the same, not active, but making noise if I get up and I am really worried, he has been fine until today, good spirits, eating, drinking (water, I don't let him have beer or liquor) running around. So this caught me off guard, I cancled a date tonight so I could stay close, but I am worried. In April, he will be 22, I don't have any kids but have had him since the Simpsons were a short on Tracy Ullman, longer than some have had kids and he really is like my kid, when no one else has been there,
Carrera. He has Cancer behind his eye, but that hasn't stopped him, my Vet calls him "The Ancient Cat" and couldn't believe how much he still generally eats (stealing a piza slize off my plate) but he didn't try and take my breakfast or lunch (he tried to steal my lunch yesterday) and right now, he isn't even taking the sliced cheese from my salad (which he loves) that I set infront of him. I just hope & pray that this isn't anything but a bad day
