RIP Woody (2005 - 2009)

Unfortunately, when Woody went in for his surgery today, they found not only an enlarged spleen (as we'd suspected) but also a tumour - unfortunately, for the latter to be removed, they would have had to also remove an untenable amount of Woody's intestine, so that wasn't a possibility. I was given the option of either having him euthanised while still under the anaesthetic or stitching him back up and seeing what happens. I didn't think option B was at all the right thing to do, given the recent drop in his quality of life, so now I'm down to being a one-weasel household again. :(
