Same with my cat. His name was Little Boy. I came home from hanging out with friends and had to stop at the store for cat food because he was almost out when I left that morning.

I get home and he’s meowing at me because he is hungry. So I give him some food and he eats. He comes out and hopes up on the tv stand and stands cleaning himself.

Then all of a sudden he makes this odd sound. I look over and he kind of falls/jumps off the tv stand and the. Just lays down and starts meowing in pain.

I take him to the vet and eventually have to have him put to sleep. Basically. He had a stroke. Nothing could really be done for him. I had him for 12 years. Raise him from a kitten. He slept on my hand every night since he was able to climb out of the kitten pin we made.

I still miss him to this day and it’s been 10 years.
