What a night.....
I get home from work to find my roommates eldest cat in some kind of crisis. He was half paralyzed and his pupils were fully dilated. Called the roomate who rushed home to get him to the vet. Unfortunately he died shortly after they got there. Vet thinks he probably either had a stroke of some kind or developed a fast-growing tumor.

RIP Winston.

:cry:

2. In the state I found him....
I don't think he was aware of much. But I don't know how long he was like that. All I know is that the other cats are visibly freaked out and upset. I think they saw the beginnings of the siezures.

3. One of my many cats died of a stroke, several strokes.
She died in my arms, took her all day to go.

I still miss her, she was one hell of a cat.

Have a good journey Winston.
