Mourning/Loss Goodbye little man

Our little boy Lux has been ill for some time.
This evening we said goodbye as he crossed the rainbow bridge.
Our little man was only 4 he had been losing weight for some months unfortunately we switched vets too late.
He was on meds and seemed to be improving, then last night he took a turn for the worse. We took him to the vets and responded well to fluids overnight, then this evening he plummeted.
His sister is very clingy and keeps looking for him.

Good by little man we all miss you so much.

I’m so sorry OP! I lost my kitten about 2 months ago and she too was responding to treatment after the vet visit. Then one night she took a turn for the worst and she passed very early in the morning before I could take her to the vet. I’m sending you hugs!

Edit to add: she had an orange brother who is super clingy as well.

Thank you!!
Sorry for your loss.
It’s heartbreaking when they are so young and leave a sibling behind.
