RIP Maru
Over the last year I've lost 5 cats from old age. July was the last one, she was 19.
Now only our 16 year old long haired tabby is left, he is still pretty healthy though and should live a few more years. Just him and my senior dog who is 15.
But my last cat won't sleep by me, my other 2 cats that died in the last year slept by my side every single day, woke me up every single morning and now they're gone and it's just me and my dog in bed, I miss them so much and I still think about my cats every morning when I wake up and they're no longer sitting on the bed with me mewing to wake me up to feed them at 7am..

Their names were Socks and Shoes. Shoes just died in July. She died in my arms at home, she had stopped eating and I took her to the vet and before I could bring her back to euthanize her she decided to go on Sunday, it was traumatic though because she jumped on the floor and then started struggling to breathe and I carried her to my bed crying as I watched her stop breathing over the next 2 minutes and stop gasping for air. It was horrible but at least she died at home in my arms and not having to be brought to the vet.

Same here. But i'm sure they have more than 5 years left, minimum. Just be aware that you have a senior cat now. Minimize stress, maximize comfort, routine ane quality of life. Also, regular visits at the vet.
>>
>>5047635
>Minimize stress
>regular visits at the vet
Mutually exclusive for my cat, always was very highly strung. I wish he was more agreeable to it, would make things a lot easier.
He's 18 now, lost his brother earlier in the year. Both of them remained happy in old age with appropriate care.
>>
>>5047645
Currently, my hope is that the visits get easier if i just do them more often. New apartment is right next to a vet, too. My goal is getting her used to it so much, that when the day comes in maybe 5 or 7 or maybe even more than 8 years, who knows, she'll pass peacefully even if it has to happen at the vet.

its just a random youtube cat. not an OG meme like longcat. maru was really more of a facebook-twitter-reddit thing. kabosu (doge) is closer to being a 4chan thing than maru. the only reason reddit like doge is because /b/ forced them to.

fun little remembered piece of 4chan history: doge originated on /jp/ and was shoved up reddit's asshole by a /b/ raid. little did /b/ expect, reddit enjoyed it, and reddit has been a shitty discount 4chan but with liberal /pol/ ever since. reddit is closer to our mindbroken ex-boyfriend than a cancerous tumor or invading force because of the sheer number of times 4chan raided it and used it as a dumping ground for banned users.
>>
>>5054135
no one asked for your schizo rambling get a life
>>
>>5054135
Truth fuckin’ nuke. Doge being denied her sticky was fucking gay. She started here. She’s basically the /biz/ mascot. Maru is totally irrelevant by comparison. If you dont keep up with youtube and guinness you may have seen this cat but you never knew its name. If kabosu didn’t get a sticky the standard of relevance has been set and it excludes basically everything below world history. They didn’t even give harambe one ffs

If you were on youtube in the early days, you knew Maru.
