Goodbye, baby Aether 💔 2018 - 2026

We snuggled for two and a half hours like this and you struggled without oxygen, but you still snuggled into my neck like you always do. You were the biggest love bomb, giving all the snuggles and more. You didn't know personal space. You ran like a penguin and sat like a gargoyle. You loved, and loved, and loved more than anyone. You sailed all the way to Mexico with us and traveled everywhere we went. You loved running down the docks and hanging out in the sun on the boat (but hated the dinghy rides). You were so quirky, hilarous, and loving. So many memories, I can't believe we don't get to make more.

We're gonna miss you forever, Aether. Ortus misses you too. Love you buddy.

I debated back and forth whether or not to make this post. Since our cats are the heart of this account, I'll give the real-time update. Over the last year we've been working on Aether's health. He's had some ongoing digestion & respiratory issues, and recent weight loss. He was diagnosed with IBD, they didn't find any cancer, and he was put on an inhaler for his cough.

Then last night his cough suddenly developed into difficulty breathing so we took him into the emergency vet. He's there now, on oxygen and medication to lessen the fluid in his lungs. They think it's congenital heart failure.

My heart is breaking. We're hoping he responds to medication so we might be able to take him home for a little while.

Hug all your babies a little extra ❤️‍🩹
