Zara McDermott was emotional as she gave an update days after her and Sam Thompson became concerned for their beloved pet cat, named Cedric.
The couple also share pet cat called Albus, both named after I'm A Celeb star Sam's favourite Harry Potter characters. Zara shared an update earlier this week sharing a photo of Cedric in a pet carrier with a bandaged leg.
"My heart is breaking into a million pieces at the moment," the former Strictly Come Dancing star wrote alongside the update to her Instagram followers. She explained: "Just before the weekend while I was away working, Sam woke up to our little man unresponsive and super hot. So he was rushed to the vet and then he was rushed to an emergency animal hospital.
"We hope it was just a stomach infection and it was getting better as they found his white blood cells were very low and had inflamed stomach/intestines/lymph nodes when scanned. But after three days just as we hoped he's turned a corner, he's very anaemic and jaundiced with a heart murmur."
Zara explained he was taken to another animal hospital according to reports in Manchester Evening News. Sam had been rushing between his tour dates to the veterinary hospital, as she asked fans to 'say a little prayer' for her fur baby.
Another post saw the former Love Island star share another snap of her cat when he was well. She wrote: "My hear is breaking at the thought of him being on his own in a little cage not understanding what's going on and why we've left him [crying emoj]. I know people may think I'm being dramatic and think 'he's only a cat', but honestly, I love them so much."
