As for me, today, I intend to spend much of it:
-embroidering
-watching Star Trek: Voyager
-spending time with Cloudy.
Tomorrow I will begin his “end of life, have sushi everyday!” diet.
I’m going to give him the best week that I can.
Oh, Cloudy, my sweet, beloved, striped friend.
Our adventures together, I fear, are coming to an end.
Cloudy (15, kidney disease) continues weight loss, etc.
Vet to call me to discuss next steps.
As is, Cloudy has a presumptive final vet appointment next wednesday.
Maybe we’ll get more time.
Thank you and I am sorry. Your kitty was lucky to have you.
He’s been with me for 15 years so we’ve had some good time. The Great Compact: best life I can give him & easiest transition to his next existence. That latter part is never easy.
I still miss our "retired tomcat" who adopted us when I was about 6 and passed when I was in college.
Also thinking about one of my very stoic good friends who almost broke down sobbing when taking about buying a cheeseburger for a last meal of their family's dog.
Pets. they're just so much more.
