Thank you all for your thoughts.
The pm has been done and Archie had acute peritonitis which was either caused by an infection to his spleen which cats are susceptible to or a blow to the body. My initial thoughts were he was was hit by a car - would you believe we have lost 3 cats that way in the last 20 years, we live in the country on a single track road and yet 3 cats have been killed by cars here, we never lost one like that when we lived in the city - but there were no other indications. His paws were unmarked and no nails were damaged so we are leaning towards the infection. Poor little thing.
I'm glad we can rule out poison. We live by farms and you never know what they can pick up.

He was a handsome kitty! Sorry for your loss. I cuss the two resident cats, but I'd be upset to have one die suddenly.

He was a very handsome man. What a beautiful face my heart is so sad for you. I wish I had great words of comfort, but he loved you as much as he could which was a lot. With love, Elannah
