Blah.. Blah...Blah
This has been the worst day of my life. I got home from work and was playing with my cats. They were running around the house like crazy. Spot came over and layed by me on the couch. I went to bed and I woke up and found my kitty spot dead. I 'm so upset. I don't know what happened. I took him to the vet. They are going to do necropsy to see if they can find out what caused him to pass away. Has anyone else have this happen to one of their cats ? I just don't understand. He didn't have any health problems. He wasn't overweight. He was only 2 1/2 years old. Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks.

I'm sorry Lexi :huggy: Sometimes things just happen. Several years ago a buddy I worked with just got up, sat in a chair, fell asleep and never woke up.
He had an aneurysm. No prior warning anything was wrong so I wonder if cats/dogs can die from the same thing? Maybe?

:yeahthat: That's exactly what I was wondering. If you had any poisons down or if he could have gotten into something that you are not aware of. There are many plants that can be toxic to kitties. I am so sorry to hear what happened. :huggy: Hopefully the doctor will be able to tell you quick so you can get whatever it is or was out of the other kitties reach. :flowers:

I've taken him to this vet since he was a kitten. I have all the cleaning products put away. My first thought was that I had a swiffer wet jet and maybe he got into that. The vet said that was very unlikely. I don't have anything out that he would have gotten into. The vet suggested that since he was only two it could have been heart problems. I' m very particlar about my pets. They're my babies. They go to the vet routine blood work ect. I don't know. It hasn't really sunk in yet. I'm sure it will when I come home from work and he's not there. The vet said that he would call me either tonight or in the morning.

The only plant that I have is an ivy plant. Who knows... He never bothered with it. Who knows.. Just keep trying to rack my brain and figure it out.

What a terrible shock. I'm so sorry. I recently lost one of my babies (a poodle). She had a health issue, but it was still a shock when I checked on her and she was gone. :huggy

I just got off the phone with the vet. Apparently he died of a bloot clot. The one side of his heart muscle was thicker than normal and the clot broke free and got stuck in his aorta and that is why he passed away. The vet said that the heart problem was hereditary. He advised that if I had more than one cat from the litter I should follow up with a pet cardiologist. I feel a lot better knowing that he didn't suffer and he didn't have any pain. I would have never forgiven myself if it was something happened to him that I could have prevented. So even with the routine care he had it couldn't have been prevented. My other cat Alexis hasn't left my side. It just takes time I guess.
