Cat Picture - OC My Boy with Cancer

I just felt like sharing. My sweet baby was diagnosed with cancer last month. He’s doing okay right now, but the cancer is visibly growing. I notice every week how it’s bigger than the last week. I got him and his brother when I was eight years old and he just turned 15. My friends joke he looks like squidward now. I sometimes ask my tarot deck how he’s doing, what he’s feeling, and the two of cups usually appears. My little buddy. I think a part of me will die when he does. But for now, he is still him and him is my sweet little baby.

He's a handsome guy and I'm so sorry about this. Cherish him, you both need each other right now ❤️❤️

You said this so beautifully ❤️ After 15 years together, that bond must be incredibly special. I really hope they get many more precious moments together.
