You never really stop missing them. I’ve had 110 cats in my life the past 25 years I’ve been here and have 21 now. I still think about the ones who are gone at various times and wish they were still here.
There’ll be at least one more this year and I feel it’s going to be soon. Isis has had an issue for over a year and now the treatment doesn’t seem to be working. She isn’t doing well this week and I’m going to make an appointment with the vet to do an assessment and make a decision. She’s at least 17. I don’t know how old she was when she was dumped off here; just know how long I’ve had her.
With luck, she’ll be the last this year. I have others in their teens but not nearly as old as she is.
It could well be that dr. is the only one in that area who does what needs to be done for her hubby. It’s pretty common around here to have to go out of town for certain treatments. Specialists will go to the large cities to set up practices, not small towns.
So next week is when you’re heading out?
Yes, if all goes as it should. I’m looking forward to the visit. The drive...not so much. That 7 hours can feel like forever if there is much road construction or it becomes stormy. Just hope that part of the state is nice and quiet for a change.
I hope Isis can hang in there for a while longer. It’s such a tough decision to have to make.
Guess I’d better finish this show and head out. It’s 83 now and doesn’t feel too bad. Much better than 93. LOL! See ya tomorrow for some rockin’ an’ rollin’!
