We will leave him over night and see how he goes. 

I'm feeling sad.  Earlier I was a bit sad but rationalising that it's the cycle of life.  Now the reality hits and the impending loss kind of hangs.  Thinking and memories.

The most striking was when I was super depressed at Magee St. Curled up on a mattress in the lounge and he came and lay in the curl. It was unusual because he normally liked to just lie near you not on or touching. Many times in recent years he's snuggled up on my bed or on my lap when on a chair.  He was a typical cat.  The dog wanted to be friends and the cat would have none of it. 

MONDAY
No sign of the cat this morning.
Last night it sleept on some clothes in the corner of my room.
Fearing it's gone away to die.
Called the vet and booked in.
Went home -> No sign of cat.  Looked under neighbours houses.
5:30pm Doctors appointment.
       Big storm. 
6:30pm Mens Group.
10pm arrived home. 
Cat appears out the front of the house.  Dry.
Kept inside all night despite protests.

SUNDAY NIGHT

I think I managed to get the daily half pill in.

SUNDAY MORNING 

I thought I'd gotten both the 3day pil and the daily half pill in but on Sunday night found the half pill spat out beside the water bowl
