Default A sad day...
My wife took one of our two cats to the vet to have her euthanized this morning (I was at work). She was 15, in kidney failure, and could hardly walk around this morning. It's a dark day in my household. We did spend a nice evening together last night with her curled up and purring in my wife's lap while we watched TV. Great...I'm tearing up as I type this.

That's a good lookin' kitty.

Amazing how they become part of the family, and how much they are missed.

Toccata,
The loss of a pet is a loss of a dear friend. So sorry to hear about the loss of your feline friend.

I am saddened too for your lost. I know how you may feel as I had to do the same with Bottine 3 years ago.

We have four pets, our two dogs and it seems that we have adopted two feral kittens. Our hearts are with you and your wife. I am sure your cat had a great life while in your loving care and that is all they can ask for....

So sorry for your loss, Toccata, but the bright side is she had a wonderful long life. Pets really are members of the family and offer such unconditional love.
