I'm sorry Dan

 

I am really sorry to hear that

You must be in a lot of pain right now

 

Found a emergency vet.., hopefully he’s fine. But he’s drooling bad and having a hard time breathing. He’s responsive though..

 

Glad you were able to get him to a vet, hopefully they can take care of him. Having watched one of our cats get sick and have to be put down last November was something I hope I don't have to repeat for a long time. I know the feeling.

 

I didnt know you had a cat

 

I'll pray for him. Glad you are able to get him help

 

God this fucking sucks. I can’t even go in and see my little buddy while they do what they do.

 

His lungs are full of fluid. As much as I hate to do it I have to put him down. Fucking hell this is horrible. I can’t even be with him. Fuck

 

Full of fluid, did he get sick? Age? Pneumonia?

 

Cancer is what they see. There’s no cure and he’s almost passed in his own as it is. I can’t let him suffer.

 

Thats sad, but inevitable

Got me looking up if cats can contract and spread covid 19

 

Really sorry man. Are they not letting you be there with him because of the covid19 thing?

When it's all said and done, what matters most is you gave him the best life a pet could ask for - to have a family that loved and cared for him. He knows it.

 

A tiger at a zoo in NY got it

 

I feel horrible about it because I heard him cry out earlier today but thought nothing of it. Only to come into the bathroom 2 hours later and he was laying there with puke and drool all over. I fucking feel so horrible. 15 years with the little guy. I would always get a hello when I get home. The last per from my childhood. I’m a fucking wreak.

 

At least they let me see him after it was done.

 

I know thats why i looked it up to see if domestic cats can as well

 

Animals having corona is nothing new

 

Most likely wouldve had a new career lined up yesterday if it werent for the stupid Corona Virus.

 

No rust on the frame or rusted bolts on the 100 series. I won't need to sand and paint like I did with the Tacoma to get rid of gravel rash. Maybe just a spray down with FF to keep everything good for the long haul. FF might make it easier to clean up after covering it with mud.

I've been getting it cleaned up to replace everything in the front end that isn't AHC related. The UBJ was very loose. Boots were shot.

I need to read up on how to index remove torsion bars and keep everything somewhat indexed for when I reinstall. Same goes for installing the AHC sensors on the new SCP UCAs. I think I can measure the positions from the old to use for when I set up the new.

Just takes a while to get everything in shape before I get serious with turning wrenches. Makes it easier to photograph the "before" to use as a reference when I need help figuring out how to get everything back together.





Don't worry, it will get new brake hoses and calipers in the final round.



It turns out that AC DELCO LBJs are really 555. At least the ones I bought are 555.

 

Sucks to hear that man. I’m in somewhat of a similar boat.
