Saying goodbye to Poofy (14) tomorrow. She is so loved.

My sweet baby has been with me through my formative years, and now as we sit with my husband. We both love her so much and are devastated with the decision to have to put her down. Fluid around the lungs, heart and stomach, with suspected mass or congestive heart failure. She fought these last 3 years with high blood pressure that took part of her vision. She’s a trooper and I’m glad she won’t be in any more pain. Knowing I only have one more day hurts so much. I’m gonna try to make it her best day ever. Thanks for listening.

My emotional support calicos, DeeDee (8) in foreground and Mishka (19) in back. We could use some support.

My life has quickly gone to garbage in the last week. Last Wednesday, I found out I have a bedbug infestation in my apartment. Two days ago I was laid off from a job I really loved. The job market is terrible. And I have three kitty girls to take care of, two of whom are old ladies with health issues. I've got an exterminator on the apartment problem but everyone says how horrible/impossible they are to get rid of and I am applying for jobs. If you have any good energy to spare, please send it our way. Sweet kitty or other pet pics also very welcome. (Please no tales of how bed bugs ruined your life. I cannot handle that right.now.)

Advice about appetite stimulants (Pixie is 19)

I'm hoping for some advice about any appetite stimulants you have tried. Pixie is very skinny, and I have a feeling it may soon be time to say goodbye. She has hyperthyroidism and kidney disease and keeps dropping weight despite stable bloodwork. Her vet said the KD is causing her muscle mass to go away and also affects their appetite and mouth. Pixie really isn't interested in much food, and I have attempted just about every wet food and liquid treat and tried heating it up. We tried mirtazapine, which didn't work and make her howl and pace. We are now trying Elura, but it has a terrible vanilla flavor that Pixie drools out. I'm going to call the vet again tomorrow to talk about it, but has anyone tried another medication? I'm absolutely shattered and trying to give her chances, but I also do not want her to be miserable and hurting.
