R.I.P. Sweet Sterrekatten's Hurricane's Drive

On February 11th,  we toke one of the hardest decisions to put our beautiful and so special Hurricane to sleep ♥
Hurricane got the E-Coli bacteria and we and the vet suspect he got it from the raw cow meat we, once and a while, give to our cats.
We treated him with all kind of antibiotics but the heavy antibiotics for this bacteria destroyed his kidneys and he couldn't handle any more treatments anymore.
The E-Coli was in control and he reacted well on the E-Coli treatment but his kidneys didn't...

His health declined drastically a few days before he dies and he couldn't walk anymore or eat or drink.
We had to give him food and water through a seringe and we had to clean him because he couldn't walk to the litter box...

The weeks he was being treated were very difficult for us but we always tried to stay positive and hopeful that he would be ok and well very soon.
Hurricane had the most sweetest temper of all ♥
He was always with us and always purring ♥









The day before he dies, he was lying next to us in the sofa next to the central heating to keep him warm and give him love and some comfort.
Hurricane was crying... we could see the tears, the pain and the sadness in his expression...
But we couldn't see him like this anymore...

The vet said to us that it would be impossible to revert this situation and because Hurricane was in pain, we decided it was time to let him go to a more peaceful place
We always thought we could save him and we did everything we could but in vain...

It's never easy to take a decision like this and he was still a very young and beautiful cat...
After we have lost Stratocaster last year, once more the pain toke over us and we cannot explain how much it hurts...
We love you Hurricane and we'll always will ♥

"Wish you were here"
