    With a heart full of gratitude

    Ellie did bring a smile to my face…how could she not? What a gorgeous little one. And just when I thought I’d never smile again, leave it to a beauty like little Ellie to change my mind! Thank you for sharing and caring.

    With a heart full of gratitude

    Dear everyone, I don’t know any of you in real life and yet I feel your love and concern in my profound grief. I am deeply moved and so so grateful you all took the time to care; it means the world to me. My other boy, Gus, who had P.U. Surgery (8 years ago? And again, here is where I was to...

    Forever

    Forever is how long I will love my Johnny. Forever is how long I will miss my Johnny. I am so sad. My house is too quiet. My heart is broken. I know people say: oh he was 18, what a beautiful long life. I’m not sure it matters wether it’s too short a life or a long life. Actually if a pet has...

    18 year old so thin

    He was very kind. He said perhaps we could get a very few weeks with him if bloodwork revealed thyroid or diabetes, but kidney would be bad news. Johnny had no fight left in him. I chose not to prolong the inevitable. Vet just kept reminding me he was 18. Old age.

    18 year old so thin

    Thank you! I will specifically ask. One issue is for me: I have had cats dogs other animals as well for over 5 decades. Every goodbye is gut wrenching, but I knew; they told me it was time; I never had a doubt. Despite my handsome boys age, I don’t get that message…yet. Then again I am older and...

    18 year old so thin

    Thank you for this advice. I do have a darker crate I will use (soft travel crate with sturdy bottom). I’ve made an appointment for evaluation this afternoon. It is very cold here but I will crack the window for him. Again, thank you for caring.

    18 year old so thin

    My 18 year old cat Johnny is so thin. He seems at times very confused. He eats a bit, then rejects food. He is drinking, peeing, pooing. My question: should I put him through testing to determine the issue? He’s terrified of vet office as before we moved vet came to our home. About a year ago he...

    New Cat Chasing Resident Cat

    Oh that’s heartbreaking!No bullies ever!! Maybe a diversion (like throw a toy to distract her)or positive reinforcement like when he’s on your lap some catnip or feed her or treat her every time he’s around? (If you can catch it before...which is hard I know). Hope and fingers crossed for you!

    Little Leon

    Here’s the wonderfully weird way life turns out: late June after 16 1/2 years my beloved little terrier died. I was with her til her last breathe, as I had promised her. Thanks to my wonderful vet, she knew no pain or fear, she was in my arms the whole time. Needless to say, I am/was crushed...

    New Cat Chasing Resident Cat

    Has she seen you snuggle with him? Maybe she thinks he’s invading and if she sees you with him, she might understand. Maybe too she’s just adjusting. I have two who have been together forever and still now and again they will argue. It’s so heartwarming to know there are heroes like you out...

    Little Leon

    Thank you for all the wonderful advice. Leon did get tested and shots (had he been positive for feline hiv etc it would have greatly affected his prognosis for healing so great news there)and was surprisingly very healthy..however as surgery was so long, vet suggested we wait to fix. I agreed...
