Last night I slept on the sofa with ratty again. It wasn't a good nights sleep, but it was better than the previous night. I managed to sleep for nearly 7 hours but probably woke up about 5 times. One time I woke up because ratty had crawled off the edge of the sofa so I scooped her up and put her back on my blanket.

From about 10:30am today ratty started having convulsions, where her whole boddy would tense up. This has been happening periodically throughout the day, with periods of calm in between.

Today I worked from home again, and ratty spent a good chunk of the day sleeping. I had to dial into a conference call around midday and she slept through the whole thing which made my life easier.

After the conference call I went downstairs for a nap and slept for about an hour and a quarter. When I woke up ratty was having some more convulsions so I laid next to her until they finished.

The rest of the day has been reasonably uneventful. Ratty is slowly deteriorating and I am thinking I will have to have her euthanised tomorrow. To be honest I have found today easier, as she seems to be less aware of what's going on and I have gotten used to her being ill.

I am tired now and really missing my bed!
