Hello Share Tweakers. The BG (BG.) takeover story started very well with a rise of 40% on the share price of a few days earlier. That was because Royal Dutch Shell (RDSA), one of the biggest companies in the Footsie, seek a juicy merger.

Blimey Malcolm ………….. first your two cats passing on , now mines bit the dust . She was going to be 16 years old in May ……………so a very good innings indeed . The old girl got a kidney tumour and had to be put to sleep . Lots of good memories to treasure tho , and photos to peruse ………. Cats ……… they just keep on giving .

Really sorry about that, Riders. Sounds like my second cat had exactly the same problem. The vet could not be sure – but it just stopped eating and nothing we did would persuade her. She was 14, so yours gave you another 2 years. Very hard to bear, isn’t it?

Thanks for that Malcolm, it is very hard ……… mine was the same , not eating or drinking. Whole thing was very very quick to progress, from being normal to very ill indeed within 3 days flat . Vet could feel the tumor from the outside . She said it was common in cats that old . Apparently the Kidneys give up working when the tumour gets to a certain size and then toxins build up in the cat ….. cat feels very sickly from said toxins and wont eat ……….. the rest is history . Lost my 6 year old rabbit last month ……. down to 6 goldfish now . Mind you one of them is the size of the British nuclear deterrent . I will have to get a bigger pond if it grows any bigger . Its already doing three point turns when it gets to the end of the pond and wants to swim back !
