RIP Neef ~ 22 September 2007 – 20 February 2010

Neef's second last day...

Neef's second last day...

Neef had been on the medications Protexin, Bactrim, Flagyl, Baytril and Panacur for most of the past 2 weeks.

I had also been taking him to work to feed him during the day.

He used to weigh 1.8kg… but he rapidly dropped down to little more than 1kg in the past few weeks. It was so scary :(

On the last days, it was difficult to get him to swallow any food or liquids. You could feel his bones and his fur was falling off. He fought on so hard but his body was giving up and it was horrible to see him in such pain.

He surprised everyone for even making it this far when the vets thought he would go mid-last week.

We made the decision to put him to sleep today rather than wait and let him suffer for what little time he might have had left.

We miss him so much :(
