I’m very sorry to hear that. Coincidentally, my mother is having her old cat, Polly, put to sleep this afternoon. She has a combination of age-related health problems, including difficulty keeping food down, and Mom thinks it would be inhumane to subject her to another round of medical interventions when all she wants is to sleep in a basket of towels.

Thanks.

We’ve lost cats, before, and this one was the hardest to take.

It wouldn’t have been nearly so bad, but the guy was just barely middle-aged and this could have been prevented if we’d have known he was afflicted. Could have had him on an anticoagulant or low-dose aspirin & he’d have probably had 4-7 more years left in him.

Literally a cryin’ shame.
