We came home from being on vacation for 2 days to find that our cat Tugger had died while we were away. When we went in to check on the cats Tugger was laying in bed. We thought he was asleep at first.
We don't know why he died. He was only 8 years old. He lost a bit of weight when we brought Cheza home, but that was a normal stress reaction for him. Whenever we moved, brought in a new pet, etc. he always lost weight. He always was fine once he got used to the change. We didn't think anything of it at all. He never got too skinny, and he never looked sick. I feel awful that we didn't know there was something wrong with him. He is at the vet, and hopefully they will find out what was wrong. He is then going to be cremated.
He was the nicest, most affectionate cat I have ever known. He would be waiting for us when we got home from work, and he purred all the time. Everyone who met him loved him.
Run Free Tugger. We are so sorry we didn't help you. We love you.
