Weasel was not her usual ferrety self Sunday. That afternoon I laid down to take a nap and she crawled in with me which is not that uncommon but she draped herself over my leg and shivered for 20 or so minutes. Then finally curling up to me and slept. I love the rare occasion they do that but I knew something was amiss. Typical behavior is to scratch and want to play.

A vet visit yesterday confirmed it. Her liver and kidneys were shutting down and she was dehydrated.

Kept her in bed tonight. I woke for whatever reason at 2:51am. By her side, she passed on at 4:30am. I’m such a fucking mess right now and I’ll never forget her. She had such a short but wonderful little life. She brought more happiness to me than I can ever express!

Buried her next to Chippy.
