Update post about my grandma's 19(+) year old cat, Prissy.

I posted here yesterday asking for advice on how to help this old girl who had stopped eating a week ago and a very generous member here offered to fund her euthanasia. (Thank you @Jap_Cracker you're a kind soul)

I had the appointment set for today and rushed back after work to prepare her crate, but she had fallen asleep in her favorite sunny spot on the floor and crossed the rainbow bridge. The first two photos are of her yesterday, on her very last outing and her very last nap on her bed. The third photo is the card I made for my grandmother who is incredibly heartbroken. And the last photo is the stray that showed up on the porch tonight immediately after I buried her and scared the absolute shit out of me lol. The resemblance is almost uncanny.

To everyone who offered food suggestions and affordable vet care options, thank you so much. She didn't give me time to try them, but you helped me navigate this challenging time more confidently.

To everyone who shared their stories about their elderly cats and offered support, I appreciate you immensely. I used some of your words to comfort my grandma today and I feel like it really helped her make peace with everything.

And lastly, to everyone who took the opportunity to bully my grieving grandmother for struggling to handle this correctly after the passing of her husband: from the bottom of my heart, go f🐾k yourself. Kindness is free and I would've been happy to share more information, had you asked. This vacation was a gift to her to help her mental health, not something she "chose over her dying cat." Her cat passing not even 24 hours into her trip is devastating. I certainly hope you dont have to watch your loved ones endure what she has. This is the fourth pet she's had that lived long enough to see their 20s. She's a wonderful caretaker and person and she did not deserve the slander.

Tomorrow I'm planning to decorate her grave site for my grandmother to have a nice place to mourn. I'll link my original post in the comments for anyone that might want more context. Thanks so much for your help everyone. ♥️

Need some advice for this 19 year old girl

I am house/cat sitting for my grandma who's on vacation. This is Prissy, she is approximately 19. I found her when I was 14 and gave her to my grandma. I turn 32 next month. She was an adult when I found her, so I can only give a guesstimate on her age, she may be even older.

Anyways, the end is unfortunately near and I worry she wont be here when my grandma gets home in a week. She stopped eating a week ago. She's all bones. Her meows are like whispers. She gets up and wanders around a bit, very slowly. She does still jump up onto the bed, go up and down stairs, etc. The other cat who previously loved her has started to hiss at her. I don't know what to do for her. She wont eat anything and she keeps splashing in her water bowl. As far as I know she does drink, but very little. I thought maybe some broth or kitten milk might help, I plan to get some after work tomorrow for her, assuming she's even still here when I get back. Any advice welcome, rather it's to help her eat or just help her prepare to pass peacefully.

🌻EDIT/FAQ:

•Yes she has been to to the vet, many times. Aside from being older than sliced bread (and now not eating), her health is okay. What's left of it anyway.

•Yes I have tried any and every thing to get her to eat. I will be getting baby food on the way home from work to try her on that to at least relieve some of her discomfort.

•Please stop with the virtue signaling. My grandma did not choose a vacation over her dying cat. She's poor, disabled, unemployed and her "vacation" is really her tagging along for a road trip with another relative to get her out of the house (for once). My grandpa died recently and now her cat is slowly passing too. Cut her some slack. I am literally just the person watching her house and pets for her. I had no idea this was the cat she meant or that she was so old until I got there.

•I have been in contact with the user who offered to help me put her to sleep. I will post updates in a new post if that really does happen. Fingers crossed.
