Yea, when we were home last, we gave him salmon from Alaska and it was fresh we had gotten a few days previously from my gf's uncle in Alaska, overnighted so it was good. He was treated like a king, I always babied him, he always would sleep with me or be around me, the video I have on fb, you can hear the pain in my voice, and hear his purr, makes me cry when I watch it.
Just of old age, my mom texted me at 7am the day and said he wasn't doing well and he prolly wouldn't make it and it had put a toll on me.
