Benny is so special to us. He and his brother Twizzle have always been big healthy cats. When we got them from a friend at only 5 weeks old, we only
meant to get one cat which was Twizzle, but Benny was also needing a home, so we came home with the two cats! Hard to believe that was 14 years ago!
Recently Benny has lost such a lot of weight and the vets have carried out tests which show he has a growth on his kidney.
Although the kidneys are working ok at the moment and blood test seem ok, he has really lost his appetite and after being such a huge cat, enjoying his food,
it is so sad to see him so diminished.
He seems happy in himself, purring and enjoying cuddles, and padding on the bed, but the vets say he will not get any better.
We are determined to do all we can for him. We choose different foods for him to try and encourage him all we can. Benny really is holding in there and we are
so proud of him. He is our very special, amazing brave cat.
