    I generally don't post private stuff here, but, I need to vent.

    We took our 5 year ridegback to the vet today because he's not been eating and been generally lethargic. After an ultra sound and ct scan and blood work, we find out he has a liver full of tumors and only a few days to live.

    About 3 hours ago, my other ridgeback suddenly collapses on the floor and cant get up. We rushed her to the emergency vet and...

    She has a large mass and blood in her abdomen. She's not going to make it through the night and my girls are on the way up there right now to say goodbye. I had to tell her goodbye in a crowded vet emergency room and can't even be there for the shot because someone has to be at home with the other dying dog.

    All in one fucking day. I'm in shock and not in a good place. Hug your pets.

    Welp. Waking up to the dog having a catastrophic seizure that even the heaviest anti-seizure medication the emergency vet could give her wouldn't stop was not how we wanted or expected to start the weekend.

    We will miss you tons Kamika, you were crazy but you were our crazy and we loved you. Hug your pets 😢

    Wheatley has been my little buddy. The bestest of boys, the weinerest dog. A creature of pure anxiety, hunger, and sleepiness - just like his owner.

    Hope our leader, the man with the briefcase, is doing ok. Been over a month since he posted on here or twitter. I know Lola passing was hard on him. Sending positive vibes wherever he is.

    So my cat Junior passed away about an hour ago. It was unexpected, we took him to the vet to check on some laboured breathing. X-rays showed fluid around his lungs and heart, not uncommon given his history of heart disease (which we knew when we got him from the shelter two years ago). They prescribed some medication to help flush it out and shortly after they gave him his first dose he took a sharp turn for the worse and passed within minutes.

    They figure the heart disease was significantly worse than anticipated and he would have had a few weeks at best regardless.

    The last pictures I took of him (last night). He was the cuddiest and most affectionate cat I've ever known.

    She’s probably a little young for it, but we took rlev to her first movie theater experience to see the new paw patrol movie.

    She has a marshal costume for Halloween that she wore. It was a ton of fun!!

    Yeah we sat front row. Yes I know it’s a sucky place to sit, but man, 10 year old me used to love that shit, and my express goal this evening was blowing her little mind. :3

    A new Shacker is born. Say hello to Markov!

    He’s only 5.5 lbs but healthy and easygoing. We’ve been watching Stargate SG1 and TNG together while his mom sleeps. I haven’t introduced him to Bal-Sagoth yet but that will come in time.
