Why do we always end up talking abortion and the death penalty?

It's been a rough week. Klaus had been acting like a freak for a while and on Sunday we noticed that we hadn't seen him around in a while. When we hunted him down under the bed we noticed that he was looking really thin(he's normally around 13 lbs). Then yesterday he started barfing clear foam and we knew something was really wrong.
Lars took him to the vet this morning and their doing blood tests that we won't have the results for until tomorrow. He's lost close to 6 pounds. Tonight we're supposed to feed him with a syringe and hope that he doesn't have liver or kidney disease, but know that he probably does.

I'm attached to all of my animals, but Klaus is our baby. We saved him from an oil barrel when he was no bigger than a gerbil. I'm trying to be stoic and positive, but mostly I'm just feeling kind of pissed off.

The good news is that I'm getting Christmas presents off to my family on time this year...and I finished two of my Christmas mixes for friends.
