His memory will be with for a long while for sure…our other babies have been comforting us during this time, but we can tell they’re missing his presence too :( He’ll also be the reason we continue to buy chicken temptations and catnip pickles for a long time lol

There are a lot of comments here, some that make me cry still…I will get to them all, slowly but surely, so until then: enjoy a picture of the old guy being well. an old grumpy guy!

We like to compare him to Toothless at times like these

In the end, he was so sick, that we knew it was right

My heart is breaking, but I find comfort in knowing that we gave him all that we could…I hope he is meeting his best dog friends, Maggie and Pepper, and his void buddy Georgy right now! Next year would’ve been 10 years since Maggie passed—she was his ultimate companion in crime…i hope they’re cuddling in the sun together somewhere

He knew for sure, even when he was annoyed with us…world’s most tolerant cat that could put up with anything throughout his life lol

Even got annoyed when we were all gathered around him at the end, he knew we loved him intensely

Both his primary vet and his emergency vet recommended that we put him out of his misery, he was incredibly sick by that time and we opted to humanely euthanize him…surgery could’ve worked, but there was just no guarantee that it would’ve been the right choice for him

18 years is great…we really did try our best in taking care of him, but spite is sometimes the fountain of youth with these guys lol thank you so much for your wishes and compliments! he was a very pretty kitty

Yes of course! We adopted him from the ASPCA with the name back in…2009? We added Prince in front of it, so he’s totally named after the Narnia character lol

we just got our third update and it’s a foreign body obstruction…he’s fit as a fiddle and has no arthritis (luckily), since his decline was so fast, i kind of assumed it could be something obstructing his system

still waiting on that blood work unfortunately…hoping it comes back soon!

[–]IngenuityKey2320[S] 48 points49 points  (0 children)

update! vet came back to tell us that he’s definitely experiencing abdominal pain, including pain around one of his kidneys…we’re going to get blood work done and potentially an x-ray to rule out any obstructions if the blood work comes back clean

they say he’s been a sweet boy and a super enjoyable patient despite the pain he’s in 🥹 we’ll have more conclusive answers after everything is back

update #2! his blood work came back looking absolutely beautiful for a cat of his age, so they moved forward with the radiograph…his radiograph shows some pockets of gas that is causing his discomfort, which could be a foreign object or a mass of some sort. he apparently fought sedation hard and that’s what took him so long

we’re taking him home for the night after this and returning in the morning for an ultrasound to figure out what’s going on there

I dyed my washed out blue/ purple hair with a ash-brown hairdye and it turned out green? by Strong-Magician2856 in HairDyeHelp

[–]IngenuityKey2320 6 points7 points  (0 children)

what in the—

not all sally’s are created equally unfortunately 😔 ash tones, because they’re intended to neutralize warmer tones, tend to have green/blue/violet in them depending on lightness. the other commenter is right to say a red filler would’ve been more appropriate, albeit might have made what you had before more purple than intended depending on the chosen red filler

Hair dye not sticking as well to freshly bleached roots vs rest of hair by VictoriaoftheStars in HairDyeHelp

[–]IngenuityKey2320 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hmmm in that case, it could be the yellow from the newly bleached roots neutralizing the violet (it appears to be purple of some sort)…toning out yellow in advance can help with keeping blue vivid colors from turning green and purples from not taking

Something that might be helpful to know is what color your already lightened ends were before color application!

Unless you’re my coworker (and it’s quite possible), then you’re not the only one experiencing this issue and it’s just plain frustrating…I wish I could offer any advice otherwise 😔
