hi everyone i have been on the list for awhile not sure why but i had to tell 
somebody about my charlie a stray i taken in almost 3yrs now he tested felv+ 
when i had him neutered he turned out to be a big black and white cat that 
loved to terrorize my 2 other males 2 wks ago he wasnt finishing his meals 
which is strange he loved to eat i also noticed him being a little more 
lethargic the humid days really bothered him he had a uri last summer that made 
him sick for about a wk i thought that was happening again then he started 
having breathing problems breathing with his mouth open got worse he was losing 
weight took to vet which was not easy since he is very scared of people being 
semi-feral he really stressed out vet told to take him to emergency vet once 
there they got him in an O2 tank he was not responding to treatment they 
inubated him so they could take x-rays his lungs were full of fluid and i made 
the decision to let him go i still cant believe
 he went that fast just the wk before he was outside chasing june bugs and 
terrorizing my other 2 guys this disease is brutal in that it took a robust big 
3yr old beloved cat so quick thanks for listening got teardrops dripping on 
keyboard got to go___

It is good that he went so fast, he did not suffer long.  After loosing over 12 
cats in recent years, it does not make any difference if it is fast or slow, 
you still miss them and it takes a while to get over their lose.

Michael,

I'm sorry for your loss. Charlie sounds like a big fun cat and I'm sure you
will miss him. I love tuxedos having two myself. Thanks for giving him a
chance, and for sharing his story with those of us on the list.

Katherine
