I had to deliver the corpse of a dearly beloved cat to the vet a few years ago... “crappy” doesn’t even begin to describe it.

I did the same. In the early morning hours of August 4, 2012,
my favorite cat of all time, My Rocket, a perfectly lovable
Maine Coon passed away of chronic renal failure.

He had a euthanasia appointment that morning, and we kept it
with his corpse. He was cremated, and he’s in a nice little
wooden box with a pretty embossed metal plate on the top.

My dear friend Salamander helped us to keep him a few years
longer when she recommended renal water (Real Water), alkalized
water that is safe for cat’s kidneys. We gave him nothing but
for at least two years, but sadly, he eventually passed.

I still cry and miss him, and I’m waiting to find him at the
Rainbow Bridge when my time comes.

Plus, Bryan (hubby) and I did some reading up about cats’ kidneys,
and we have fed them nothing but Feline Renal Food ever since,
and we’re going to keep it that way. No cat will die of
renal failure in this house ever again, over my dead body.

We lost 2 of our kitties within 2 months to old age. Our favorite is hanging on don’t know how we will deal with it when he goes. Fortunately adopted a new rescue kitty about 2 months ago and she appears to have quite the personality. only 4 months old and pushing the german shepherd around. looks like she has a lot of bengal in her....
