this would be our first photo together. who knew that you would be leaving me this soon?
look how mischievous he is at the clinic after the blood test today.
i guess, this will be our last photo together?
this cat's name is xiaobai /baibai /ahpui /puipui /puitutu.
i realized his presence and realize how friendly he is only this year. i so called adopted him by giving him food and water and bringing him up to my house to play with him. he is more important to me than you will ever know. we only had memories of 11 months together.
he is a very mischievous but friendly cat.
1) he got into a fight with a cat and was badly injured and my mother found him downstairs. we couldnt bear to see him injured and not care about him. brought him to the vet in the middle of the night and brought him back home to nurse him into good health and before we let him go down and that was 12 days at our house.
2) he had an ulcer in his mouth and we brought him to the vet again. he stayed for a couple of days and he ate well so let him go back to where he belong most.
3) 5 days ago, we brought him to the vet once again as we suspect he has an ulcer as hes not eating again. doctor suspected of kidney problems but didnt want to go into conclusion so again, he gave us the medicine and told us to keep the cat under observation and to bring him back if his appetite does not get any better. 2 days ago, he started eating and we felt relieved. yesterday, we realize he has not been eating anything again and just kept drinking water.
4) today, we decided to bring him to the vet once again for a blood test. while the doctor brought him inside for the test, we were outside waiting for him and we heard him scream so loudly and so painfully. it broke my heart so much. he came out looking so afraid and only felt better after we consoled him. he started to roam around the clinic until the report was out. i heard the most devastating news in my life. xiaobai is not going to make it. his kidney is failing and the amount of toxic that is produced is 4 and 8 times more than the normal. the only treatment for him is to put him on drip for a week (somewhat like dialysis), but that will only prolong his life by 3-5 months. after that, the same thing is going to happen. so i asked, 'how long does he have if he does not undergo the drip' he told me 'a week'. i wanted to faint and it broke my heart so so so much. a week later, he would be leaving us. i dont want.. i dont want him to go..
his last week will be the worst week because he will start vomiting, stop eating or drinking, stop urinating or passing motion and eventually he will find a place to hide and he will go like this. as much as i dont want this to happen, letting him go this time would be better than letting him experience this again 3-5 months later.
the cost of bringing him to the vet dont matter. as long as he can get better.. but this time, hes not going to make it anymore.
never thought that i would get so attached to this cat. hes the only pet that i have ever adopted in my life. in a week, hes going to be gone forever. just cant imagine the heartbreak.
i wonder if he knows that his time is going to be up. i wonder if hes scared.
he was abandoned by his previous owner when the owner move house and left this cat downstairs to roam on his own. thank god, this cat is blessed and everyone living in this block dote on him so much that he wouldnt have to worry about starving. all the middle fingers in the world to that owner for adopting this cat and abandoning him. and now when hes having the last few days of his life, does the owner even know? such a poor thing.
cant believe that im crying as i type this post.
i just want to say thank you for letting me be a better me.
远处海港传来阵阵船笛
我一直飘零到被你拣起
如今望着反映窗户玻璃
有个我陌生又熟悉
I can Smile a little more
Sing a little more
Feel a little more
全因为你
说好了要为幸福 一天天地练习
练习 Laugh a little more
Love myself a little more
要学会更加善待我自己
为你我变成了 Better me
什么距离都不算是真的分离
想念和默契能代替一切言语
有一天生命会老去 还好谢谢有你
在你眼中 I see the better in me
Coz I can Smile a little more
Sing a little more
Feel a little more 全因为你
说好了要为幸福 一天天地练习
练习 Laugh a little more
Love myself a little more
要学会更加善待我自己
为你我变成了 Better me
就是那么神奇
从前的错都有意义
教我抛开所有猜疑 也许
我也美丽 值得一个奇迹
我的眼泪会坠落
绝不是因为懦弱
而是感谢天让我遇见你
不然今天就不能 如此地有勇气
Now I promise to you
And I can swear to you
为你我 一定加倍 珍惜*我自己
做一个值得你 骄傲的 Better me
一个值得你 爱的Better me

i never knew i could get a cat to like me so much. to come and sayang me whenever he sees me or when i call him. to come home with me without me carrying him. to come to my house by himself when he is sick. to be such a sweetheart to me. to do so many cute stuffs that it makes me so hard to let him go now.
a week later, its time to say goodbye.
i cant make you stay, i can only wish that you would feel better after you are freed from this misery.
