I and my furry lads wish you and Maurice many more years together. We have had out share of feline loss in our home and it never gets easier. Alas, my partner and I are growing older and know that the two cats we have now will probably be our last, as we do not want to get any more when they pass beccause of our age--and the thought of leaving a cat behind. Choosing to have 4-leggeds as companions is the most rewarding thing in life, I think, and I know having us means the same to them when they are much loved.

He's still happy, if slightly less energetic every day... but the end is in sight. It seems I've taken so many animals on that last trip to the vet; each seems more difficult than the last. My heart is full of cat- and dog-shaped holes and I begin to wonder just how many more times I can do this. And yet a house without cats would not be a home.sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16291326380557787987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2535700394266979924.post-50729731937047279032009-10-05T08:59:18.077+02:002009-10-05T08:59:18.077+02:00The way you describe and explain this most sad an...The way you describe and explain this most sad and painful development in the life of this beautiful creature helps me a little to search for words to comfort myself over the loss of my dog recently.

(That was 8 years ago and I sit here with fresh tears.) We did finally find someone. My little Lady was valiant and sweet to the end. We were soul mates and I learned how much a pet can mean to one. I did not know, because I am allergic to cats and took in Lady, expecting her not to last because we have heavy traffic in front of the house. She lived 18 years- somehow it worked for both of us. I feel for you and Maurice.SusanLadynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2535700394266979924.post-36437320057177905042009-10-04T05:51:14.854+02:002009-10-04T05:51:14.854+02:00I am so sad for your pain.

I know what it is to live with furry, four-legged ones who bring such joy into your life while you watch and wait and hope they live just a bit longer. <br />I have one who likely has lymphoma in her intestines. She has always had a sensitive tummy and has been on steroids since they first found the inflamation. She has been wasting away recently, just getting thinner and thinner, but always so hungry. I recently went on a hunt for new cat food as the vet has said it's likely that there is a food allergy component to her disease. So, no more chicken for my beautiful girl. She seems to be improving.<br />I hope for both you and Maurice that the steroids help him and that you are able to enjoy many more moments with him. This blog, your words and your pictures and the cats are a must read for me every day. Thank you so much for sharing their lives with us.Amy in Austinhttp://www.anlinadesigns.com/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2535700394266979924.post-78161898815460779662009-10-03T22:20:40.977+02:002009-10-03T22:20:40.977+02:00Oh Jackie, I am so sorry to hear the news.
