Edit: I want to thank everyone for their kind comments. I had a few good cries reading them. My family and I are heartbroken but we will be okay. We have for other cats to continue loving. It all happened very suddenly so please pay attention to your furry ones behavior to try and catch stuff before it gets too late.

Damn, sorry for your loss 😔
I had a cat named Momo too, she got FIP which was 100% fatal at the time (vaccines for it didn't exist back then) and passed away. Hope they're snuggling together in kitty heaven ♥️

Oh no. I'm so sorry for both of your losses. Coincidentally one of our current cat's name is also Momo.

Just out of curiosity, did you all name your cats "Momo" after Tibetan dumplings, because "Dumpling" seems like a really cute name for a pet.

Actually, my SO named Momo meaning peach in Japanese.

I actually named her Mo after Mojang because she looks like a Minecraft dirt block and I was obsessed with Minecraft at the time. That's a cute idea though, she did definitely look like a little dumping♥️
