    Onxy looks like our Midnight cat. She's a rescue, showed up one night scrounging for food we had dropped in the garage. It was 12ºF and she was nothing but bones. We couldn't help but to give her a home, she would have probably not lived through the night.

    Good for Midnight, and bravo for you! People who abandon pets suck. That's how we got Mimi (tuxedo cat in my weight loss counter pic). Woman in the apartment below us just abandoned her when she moved. She took her dog though. One good thing she did for Mimi though. When we took her to the vet for a spay he shaved her and found she had a scar from having already been spayed. It turned out to just be a really weird drugged up nap for her instead of surgery. She's been part of our family for a decade now. :smile:

    Still and quiet feline form,
    In the sun, asleep and warm.
    His tail is limp his
    Whiskers drooped.
    Man, what could make
    This cat so pooped?

    My precious baby, EQ, is in my profile pic over there <---- Sadly, she is dying. She is 16 years and 7 months old and is my love. I am so saddened to say goodbye to her, which will likely happen on Saturday. She and I have been through so much over the past 16 years and I am going to miss her beyond belief.

    Please say a prayer for her and kiss all of your kitties for me tonight. This is the most difficult thing I've ever had to deal with...:sad:

    I just went through that experience this past May with my baby, Pebbles (in my ticker). She had just turned 15 years and went into renal failure and stopped eating. :sad: Yes it was very hard but I stayed with her to the end and it was actually a peaceful experience. She purred so sweetly and then went so quietly. The vet and assistant were also crying, that was the impact she had on everyone. You will alway miss them and love them, the pain is there, but it becomes bearable with time and your memories with them will always be a part of you. I can only hope to be able to show love as perfectly as she did. Hugs to you. :heart:

    Thank you. And I am sorry for your loss as well.
