>> Hi everyone,
>>
>> I am sad to say that my cat Romeo had to be put to sleep yesterday
>> afternoon. This happened somewhere between 1 and 2 p.m. Romeo was 3
>> years and 9 months.
>> Bob Marquardt and I don't know after talking with the vet if he had
>> diabetes, feline disease or another disease that we don't know about.
>>
>> As some of you may remember, I got Romeo from Sheri Albers back around
>> June 28, 2010 right before going to NFB National Convention.
>> It was through an NFB local chapter auction we had and I won't forget 
>> that.
>> I have been crying for the last 2 days. When I came home on Friday
>> after work, I noticed something seriously wrong with Romeo. He was
>> lying on the floor not moving. I held him for several minutes trying to
>> comfort him. He was breathing very shallow. He moved his tail very
>> little but nothing else. Before I went upstairs to bed, I put him on
>> the couch for the night. The next day he was still breathing but no
>> moving. He gave a tiny meow but it was very weak. I called the doctor
>> Friday night but he couldn't get to me until the next day. I told him
>> when he came Romeo would not run away this time.
>> He will be sorely missed.
>> He was a very active cat until he started to lose weight, not eating
>> anything but drinking lots of water until Friday when his body started
>> to shut down.
>> He was otherwise known as zoom zoom Romeo.
>> He loved to run up and down the stairs, jumped at me and play tag, and
>> a host of other activities. I love his hair being very short. He was
>> soft and cuddly in the beginning but grew to become a fat cat I think.
>> I don't know if I'll get another pet.
>> I need some time to cope with this loss and figure out if I can do this
>> all over again.
>> If Bob wasn't around, I don't think I can take care of an animal by
>> myself especially when it comes to keeping the place clean.
>> It's hard to adjust not having a cat after spending 3 years and 9
>> months being attached to a cat who expresses love to both of us. He
>> kept us company and greeted us at the door when we get home for the 
>> evening.
>> Take care everyone.
>>
>> Sincerely,
>>
>> Lisa Hall, Cincinnati, Ohio
