so long, little one




Kiki passed away yesterday morning. We came home on Wednesday afternoon and Kavan found her laying in the basket of clothes, looking very ill, with saliva flowing out of her mouth. She was shivering. Mummy brought her to the vet right away. It was a viral infection and the vet was afraid it might have spread to her brain already. She was admitted for a night, and the next morning, she was gone.

Fifa searches for her every now and then. He would go to the bathroom, (Kiki used to love going to the bathroom), meow and leave. I guess it was best that mummy payed the SPCA to bury Kiki. We didnt bring her home and let Fifa see her like that. I mean, after what happened to the dogs, (Lemon was depressed when Dottie died, Vodka was depressed when Sammy died) and our last two cats, (Leo was depressed when Milk went missing) who knew what Fifa would be like.



They were pretty close. They'd go everywhere around the house together. Never thought I'd say that since Fifa was so cold towards her in the beginning. But I think Fifa is happy, still. I always make sure he gets all the attention he needs, to keep his mind off his missing friend. I know it may be weird to some, the fact that I treat my pets like humans, but hey they mean a lot to me.

Anyway, as I was cleaning the litter-box, I saw worms in the stool. I quickly told mummy to make sure she gets Fifa checked. I'm worried he might be infected, though he seemed perfectly healthy. Clean and hyper. No weight loss. If anything, he gained weight. It may not affect him in any way but it could be one of those animal diseases that would infect humans, like campylobacter or cryptosporidium or something. And I dont think I need to remind you that I just cleaned the litter-box. I must have come in contact with the stool without noticing it.

Mummy said okay and then started talking about the neighbour's cats that would always come and visit our house (to steal Fifa's food and most probably relieving themselves at his litter-box).

I wonder when shall Fifa see the vet. Let's have a countdown.
