I AM SO SORRY TO HEAR OF YOUR PROBLEM, I LOST A BEAUTIFUL TUXEDO CAT WITH FATTY LIVER DISEASE, WHERE HE WEIGHED 20 LBS AND LOST WEIGHT QUICKLY, WHICH THREW HIM INTO THIS DISEASE. WE ENDED UP PUTTING A FEEDING TUBE IN, WHICH DISTRESSED HIM SO MUCH AND IN THE END WE HAD TO PUT HIM DOWN. THAT WAS A YEAR AGO AND I AM STILL WONDERING IF I SHOULD HAVE PUT HIM THROUGH THE PAIND OF THE FEEDING TUBE, BUT I HAD TO TRY TO SAVE HIS LIFE. A DAY DOES NOT GO BY BUT THAT I DON'T MISS HIM.
