Found another thread:
Tigger, abandonded many years ago, was taken in by my wife [before we were married and was a single parent (dratted husband didn't provide support) ] when she lived with her parents. When she moved out, her parents kept Tigger. No wishing to have an argument with them she allowed this to happen.
Many years later:
Enter Felton, marriage and LARGE house. Four cats, two dogs and one cockatiel.
Tigger is in early stage kidney failure by this time of his life. My in-laws want Tiiger put down as they don't want to have him suffer. Nancy takes Tigger to vet and an IV is used to give him fluids. Nancy is a nurse and know I don't object to any expense where it relates to health and welfare of our masters. We chose the burden by letting them make us slaves.
Tigger is now at home. Drinking more and getting used to the additional needs that will support him till he crosses the Rainbow Bridge.
Tigger may stay with us till he crosses. MIL and FIL have not yet decided
but we will provide what we can and hope he accepts the additional four cats into his world (since he thinks he's Alpha cat)
Charlie has become a member in good standing in our clan and life goes on.
