Next door got a kitten almost exactly the same time as I got Gandalf, and the same age. I saw him earlier today, very handsome boy, tiger tabby on top, white on the bottom. Gave me rather a pang . For one thing he looks fully grown, whereas my Gand still looked like a baby, despite being very much bigger than he was when I first got him (and having a remarkably good appetite). Looking back I wonder if i should have seen all along that something was just not right. But I've never had a kitten before, so I did not

Yeah. I just did not know what was normal and what was not. Merry and Pippin were virtually never ill. Maybe the very occasional bout of diarrhoea (probably my fault for feeding them too much 'human food' when they begged) but nothing at all like Gandalf.

It's very hard to see when a pet is not showing very obvious symptoms.
