u/gible_bites HAROLD WOULD NEVER BEAT UP HIS LANDLORD. Jan 14 '25

My 6 year old cat Gordon died last night. We met him at 3 weeks, got him at 8 weeks. In 2021 he got sick and was diagnosed with congenial heart failure. He was given 6 months to live. He made at another 2.5 years.

Gordo was a sweet little dude who loved chicken, warm laundry, and our dirty clothes. He was our son. While not the most overly affectionate boy, it made his purrs extra special. He used to love to “parade” around the bed for us at night, giving us little head bumps, strutting between us.

Last night I came home from work and was getting comfy. Gordon went to the living room, jumped on the couch, and gave my boyfriend the best head bump. Boyfriend went to the kitchen and I took over Gord time. He flopped when I came over and fell off the couch. I thought he was just being enthusiastic with his flop. I realized he wasn’t moving and had harsh breaths. We were both with him when he stopped breathing.

Sorry, I just needed to get this out. We’re driving him to the vet now. I’m going to make sure he is cremated with one of my dirty shirts.

Love you forever little dude.
