Thank you. I'm realizing now that his death was part of a greater change, in both our lives, of which I felt profoundly guilty (regarding him). A big move away from his beloved hunting grounds, and perhaps a move that contributed to his demise (?). But it couldn't be helped, and I did everything...

Thanks, Di and Bob. So grateful for your support. xx

Thank you, Purr-fect. That's really helpful, as what I struggle with most are the last days...Did I do the right thing, at the right time, etc? I'm not used to making decisions like these, for sentient beings (hopefully nobody has TOO much experience with that)...I guess we're never sure of...

Thank you so much. Hug.

Everyone, I'm just perusing your notes again, as I've been hit hard with guilt, what-ifs, the whole thing. And reading your kind, heartfelt, thoughtful and personal notes help me SO much. I am so grateful. Wishing everyone a wonderful holiday season, whether with your current cats or the sweet...

Di and Bob, did I ever thank you for this? It helped me so much. Thank you, from my heart! xoxo

Thank you, Betsy. I really appreciate this. xoxo

Thank you so very much. Helps me a lot. Hugs. x

Oh--Oh--Thank you for this. What an incredibly lovely thing to write. My abiding thanks, to you! And big hug. Soothes me and makes me feel much better...xo

Hi everyone, I moved with my beloved Otto (10) to the city, after living in the mountains for his whole life. We were down here for less than two months when a neighbor cat (a very mean cat) jumped into the yard, bit Otto and caused a wound that abscessed...got it treated, but Otto didn't seem...

Thank you for saying that...Others have, too (that his bond with me is most important). So, I'll work on the enrichment but trust in the bond...:)

Thanks, everyone. In my mind, my cat will never be happy because his happiness is based on exploring and hunting. I feel it's like taking a person who loves the outdoors (skiing, hiking, etc) and putting them inside. Forever. But he DOES have access to a really nice yard (and can go out front...

Hi all, Well, I moved my cat from the mountains to the big city, found a place with a yard, and--he is totally unimpressed. He lives to hunt voles and explore outside (though he'd always come home to eat and sleep a lot), and the yard just holds no interest for him. I am worried about him. He...

Thank you!
