We are heartbroken to report that our beloved Fenway (known as Kerr pre adoption) passed away on Saturday.
We adopted him in May 2021 after he made his long journey from China. He was a beautiful and loving companion. Unfortunately he came to us with a myriad of health problems including multiple tick born parasitic infections. Some of these were diagnosed and treated pre adoption but the most severe (Babesia) was not. He had a mast cell tumor removal in Dec 2021. About 6 months ago he began to have tummy troubles which became progressively worse. He had multiple visits to the vet culminating in another consult with an internal medicine specialist 3 weeks ago who diagnosed inflammatory bowel disease via endoscopy/ultrasound. Very sadly despite a complicated and intense treatment plan which included around the clock home care, our lovely boy collapsed and died in my arms in our back yard. He never responded to the treatment.
We are obviously devastated. We loved Fenway with all our hearts and will miss his joyous spirit.
Sincerely,
Marion and Bill
