I'm so sorry, Tracy.  Herbie sounds such a sweetheart (just like my
Snoball--that's what he did, when he was still here).
Bless you for caring.

Subject: Herbie is gone......


Herbie was in a lot of distress at home and so I took him to the
emergency
vet (also the place that just saw him on Friday), even after being
stabilized in oxygen, he continue to go down hill.  His heart was
enlarged
and we were very limited in what diagnostics could be done in light of
the
stress on the heart (couldn't give him fluids) and then his inability to
drawn air in......The new X-rays shows spots on the lungs and poss.
fluid,
the lymph nodes were still very large.....

So, with a poor prognosis, and the fact that he would not be able to
survive surgery or sedation, I decided to let him go.  When I went back
to
see him, I knew immediately it was the right thing to do--he looked
awful,
even with the oxygen, he was really struggling to breathe........He went
as
soon as the sedation was given, he was gone before the lethal fluid was
even given.

I will miss Herbie--he was such a love bug--hence, his name.  He liked
to
lie next to other cats and put his "arms" around them.
