LOL! He is my Rocket, and he has chronic renal failure, but we've been nursing him along for nearly two
years now. His numbers are going up slowly, but they're not too far into the red yet. He's at least 17 years
old, so we're hoping old age gets him before the kidney failure. And you're right, he is a lovey boy.
If you look in the encyclopedia under "spoiled" you will find this picture:
My Rocket on the grooming table
Ah, cute kitty on the “grooming table”! I hope he can go for many more months. So sad when they become senior kitties and start to break down. My kitties aren’t in the senior category yet—my Alfie is getting there—he’s 11, but my mom has had a couple make it to 19. One of those was actually 19.5 and some others to 18, 17, and 16. I think it was the kidneys on most of them that started to go out.
