The (Pending) Death of Angel

Angel has been the love of my life for the past 17+ years, and at 18+, she has lived a nice loving long life. Tonight, when I came back from the museum, she seems slow, sluggish, not felling well.

She was laying on the tile by the front door. I put her up on the bed, and gave her some love.

I could feel “death”, I don’t know if it’s tonight, but the Grim Reaper is lurking.

This is going to suck. ;-(

FYI: Her birthday is listed as 08-24-2004, but the would be the (approx) date I got her, at age 1, so that makes her 18, and born in 2003.

I know, I’m lucky. Many others only get a few years, I’ve gotten almost two decades, and still might. 🙂

2021-08-26 11:25am Update : She made it thought the night, and is doing well today. Been sleeping most of the morning. It seems she did not eat yesterday, and only licked up the juice from the new (favorite) food I put out this morning. Still very worried, am thinking days, not weeks or months, let along years… But life can surprise you. 🙂 Here is to hope.

2021-08-26 8:25pm Update : She is hanging on. I picked her up and put her on the bed, she weight like 5 pounds, half of her hay day. It’s not long. 🙁 I’ve been thinking back, 2 days ago, after the swap meet how active was she, when (exactly) yesterday did I really realize the possibility of this, was it earlier in the day when she was staying by the tile at the front door? What can be done, she’s an old “lady” (at 18+)?

Note: For reference this post originally contained the world “Possible” in the parentheses before the “Pending”. Given this evening, I am not sure that “possible” is the correct now. Now I just see it as “pending”. 🙁 This is sad.
