This is an older picture of my sweet Little One. I've had her for over 17 years. This is the longest I have ever been owned by a cat. Tomorrow I have to take her to the vet to be put down. This is the hardest thing I've ever had to do in my life. She's been a wonderful cat and best friend for all of these years. I don't know what I am going to do after tomorrow when I come home and she won't be there to greet me at the door. She has become nothing but skin and bones in the last few months. She walks into the middle of rooms, stops and howls. She drinks water like crazy and eats little. The vet and I have tried numerous things (special diet and vitamins, etc.) but she is just too old now. I cannot handle looking into her eyes anymore and seeing the misery that she is. I know it is my duty to help her along and not have her be in misery any longer. It hurts so much.
Sincere condolences kingricefan - just seeing this now - you did the best you could for her and she's at peace now (((((KRF)))))View attachment 27593View attachment 27593

Thank you! For some reason it seems to be easier for me this time, versus times in the past when I had to have a cat put down. I guess because I knew that her time was running out and I was able to prepare myself for it. I still have my moments when I just think about her and cry but it's been different this time. She definitely had a long, long life and knew that I loved her with all of my heart. I know we will see each other again. I didn't tell anyone here on the board but a few days before I was to take her in to be put down, out of the blue I heard my Mom's voice (her young and strong voice, not her tired older voice) say 'I'll watch her, son.' I wasn't thinking about my Mom right then or my Little One, so it was a surprise to hear Mom's voice but I knew she was talking about my baby and it gave me much peace to know that it was going to be alright. I never had anything like this happen before so it shook me up some but it was a good feeling.Sincere condolences kingricefan - just seeing this now - you did the best you could for her and she's at peace now (((((KRF)))))
Thank you. And thank you for taking in a stray and saving a fur baby's life. The kitty is beautiful!So sorry KFF. That has to be so heartbreaking to do.
We got a new kitten.
The other night, the kids went to a school function, and on the way home, in front of our house Karen saw a kitten by the side of the road.
She scooped it up, and brought it in the house before someone ran over it.
Her name is KitKat, and she has adjusted well to the household. She loves the dog to pieces! Saw her awhile ago chasing after the dog!
She goes to the vet tomorrow to get her shots, and be checked out. We got right on that.
She looks to be 8 to 10 weeks old.
Soeone just tossed her out like so much garbage. Poor thing. But she now has a forever home!!

Are you doing it from mobile? I figured out if a pic ain’t attaching, save it to Google Drive and resave it from there and attach the resaved image.Apparently I’m not savvy enough to attach a picture.

How do you know for sure it's Tina? Don't they all look the same?I found a stinkbug in my house the other day. Her name is Tina. I released her, but she keeps coming back. Not sure why. What do they eat? I don't have any Purina Stinkbug Chow around the house. She moves slow like a panda. It's kind of sweet.
