Rest in peace Iggy

Iggy passed away on Friday, Nov. 2, after about 3 weeks of an unexplained illness that results in him not eating nor being able to walk. He was in a lot of pain, so together with the veterinarian, we decided to stop his suffering. Ramzi and I were with him at the time and I was petting him until the very end. The veterinarian later did an autopsy and Iggy had more calcification on his lungs than he had ever seen before. Dr. Scotland suspects that this was the result of a metastasized tumor. I am very sad that Iggy isn't with us any more (I had him for about 8 yrs!), but am very glad that he isn't in pain any more. You can click below to see some photos of Iggy over time.
