So Long, Bomber
Today was a bit of a sad day at the Falconers. We finally made the decision to put our cat Bomber down. He'd been acting strange for a couple of weeks, bleeding from his nose, and we discovered he had very high blood pressure. We tried treating that with medication, but the bleeding continued. Today we noticed his nose and face actually looked different, and the vet confirmed that there seemed to be a bump and puffiness around the bridge of his nose "that could be any number of things." Given our rather awful and drawn-out medical experience with our other cat Anthony, we decided Bomber had a pretty good run of 14 years. I'll miss his lap time. I won't miss the hairballs. From nearly-feral shelter cat to affectionate nuzzler, he was a pretty good pick.
How's Ben handling it? Again, so sorry for to hear this sad news.
