TRAGIC ENDING TO A BEAUTIFUL BOY
J1 was re-homed after he was neutered after we found Faith's kittens had died of Congestive Heart Failure. He was given 6 weeks to recover and lose his testosterone, which wasn't easy as he had already turned rather funny after mating Faith and became very frustrated and took it out of poor Ade. He could be quite the meany when he didn't get a lady friend. It didn't help that the girls were constantly yelling all day and night.
He was re-homed in Wales near family so we could visit. They fell in love with him and we delivered him and a mountain of equipment to settle him in. We kept in contact and J1 even made it into the story of Your Cat magazine. I contacted his new family in November to catch up and all was well and very happy indeed. Fabulous. Then not two weeks later there was a phone call to say that J1 had become seriously ill and was in the cat hospital on huge doses of diuretics to take fluids away from his abdomen. We all prayed hard and by 11pm that same evening, J1 had passed away, his heart had given out. He had gone into Congestive Heart Failure. It all is getting far too much recently as we have now lost two of his children and a further two kittens to the same thing. All the lines connected to these will be neutered. It is far too painful for everyone concerned.
