Precious Tribute Wall

I found Lucky when he was about a day old and took him to the vet to see if they could help as I was only 18 at the time and wasn’t sure what to do with a kitten so young, they told me he most likely wouldn’t make it so I went and got everything I thought I’d need for him to be able to take care of a kitten so small.

‍

He made it and proved everyone wrong, he was with me for 10 years through the best and worst moments of my life.. I got sick at the beginning of this year and was in the hospital for 3 months before going through a surgery of losing my arm, my sister was at my house pet sitting but I would sneak out of the hospital to come home so I could see lucky and my other cat.

‍

When I finally got to come home at the end of May I noticed lucky wasn’t eating a lot so I tried everything I could to get him to eat more but he was still acting normal so I thought maybe it was just the change of me not being home for 3 months and then coming home.

‍

By June I decided to take him to the vet because he had stopped eating completely and they did testing and said his kidney levels were up a little bit but he should be ok. 3 days after my birthday in July I had to make the difficult decision to put him to rest because everything just got worse but the vets weren’t sure why.

‍

After I got his ashes back and asked why I hadn’t gotten his test results back I finally had my vet call and tell me it was due to a gallbladder leak into his body so he was filling up with fluids and there’s really nothing that could have been done.

‍

I’ll forever cherish the 10 years I got to spend with Lucky by my side and will miss him for forever and a day ❤️
