The Shaggy days

Well you read the title now let me tell the story. Well Shaggy had been purring less and less and meowing more one day and we knew something wasn't right. He would meow at the door like he always did but would claw and squirm trying to get out of the room he stayed in. and he also wasn't eating. he had runny number 2 if he did go. finally he went to sleep but by then it was dinner time and we knew he was sick. After we had dinner Mom and Dad talked about it. Dad was going to return Shaggy to his owner. We were afraid he wasn't going to make it. Even though he was awake he didn't have the strength to move (Trust me you can get sick that fast) and he was in pain. Unfortunately He was taken away from his mother to young. We didn't realize that the people who gave them to the people we bought Shaggy from (we bought Shaggy from a place that had cats who were ether bought or found) had been bottle feeding him for three weeks and Shaggy was found abandoned in a shed. The woman we bought Shaggy from had him for only three weeks. Anyways back to the story. Well my dad and me drove to a gas station that we were to meet the owner who had Shaggy before, we put Shaggy in a cat carrier with a blanket. On the way Shaggy just lay limp and occasionally meowed. I tried to take him out to see how he was doing (It was like 7:00 something and since its winter time it gets dark really early) He turned and started meowing desperately and twisted around while biting the blanket he was laying on so I put him back. We finally got there and gave Shaggy to the lady. Just so you know Shaggy is okay now though he still is in danger. Well now you know the story but hey at least he's okay.
