Some of you might remember my post on the introduction thread from the other day. We got Elliot 6 days ago,he was neglected but making great progress- he was eating the right food, gaining energy and getting clean, but this morning just after we woke up he passed away. It was sudden, as he had been up and pestering us for a hot water bottle at around 5am, but at least he wasn't suffering. The vet thinks it might have been a heart condition or due to his previous diet. Thanks for all your messages on the other thread,and the advice on these forums definitely helped us help him a great deal.

For I will whisper into their hearts
That I am always with them

I am so very sorry for your loss.
Thank you for taking Elliot in and showing him love and gratitude that he deserved even if it was
for only a short period of time you made his last week on earth probably one of his best week ever

So sorry for your loss.

@Izzy my heart breaks for you. So very sorry to hear Elliot passed away. In the six days he was with you he learned what unconditional love was. He felt he was loved and welcome. That means the world.

A bug hug for you,

Natasja

I am so sorry. Keep the best memories closest to your heart. 6 hours, 6 days, 60 years it is never long enough. I am so happy Elliot got to feel your love.

Aw Izzy, I am so sorry to hear this. :(
But you did the best you could, and Elliot knew you loved and cared for him.

Bless your heart. I'm so sorry.
He did have the best of life for 6 days.
More than he had with the previous owner
I'm sure. Still glad he was with you. He had that
Love and comfort.
