Our poor Kevin is still lingering on. I spoke with the vet yesterday who advised me to take him in this afternoon to help him on his way if he hasn’t already crossed the bridge by then 
. When Kev was in for tooth surgery they discovered a mass in his stomach which was scanned and suggested to be possibly a fatty lump, but was agreed Kevin was too fragile for further tests. The vet suggested to me yesterday that the lump was more likely on his spleen, and therefore likely to be a cancer which explains the rapid deterioration. He is Still not showing signs of distress or pain, just sleepy. He has been barely surviving on the odd dribble of water that he will tolerate, or watered down critical care. I have been sure every day that it’s going to be the day, but he fights through. I feel the last act of kindness I can ever possibly give to him is to help him over the bridge of rainbows 
. The prospect of signing on the dotted line shatters my heart, but I can’t possibly leave him like this over the weekend. We have cherished the last of our time with Kevin, and made sure that we have told him he is the bestest boy and we love him. We’ve lay with him for hours whilst he’s slept, talking about all the funny memories we have with him. I’ve slept in the living room every night this week with him to ensure he’s not alone if he passed over. I’m gutted that it’s got to this stage, and I question if I should have made this decision sooner. I wish things could have been different for Kevin. He has been through so much in the last month with his health. We just bought a new house, and have spoke about getting Kevin a run for the back garden in the summer time, and extending his c&c. I never thought this day would come as quick as it has.
It’s true what they say, you dont have a pet your whole life, but they have you for the whole of their life
. We have loved Kevin from the day we got him as a rescue at 4 weeks old back in 2019. I hope his journey is peaceful .

we talked to him the full time and let him know how loved he was and always will be. He took his last breath with the people who loved him most in all the world
