Pets

Dear Niagara, I'm an old guy and I can't begin to remember how many cats that have shared my home. Every one of them have been special and I know exactly how you feel about Moppet. I would say that in the end kidney failure claimed the majority of them.

Your vet is correct. If she won't eat anything else she may eat turkey baby food or human canned tuna. I don't want to go here, but bitter experience has taught me that when a cat reaches the stage where it has quit eating, there is no saving them. That is just a terrible fact that you need to prepare yourself for. I know there have been times when I have waited too long to make the fateful decision. I'm sure you will know when it is time.

Moppet is 19 and that is a good run for any cat. Just keep giving her love and pets. I'm having a hard time writing this because I am still grieving over the loss of the Redd Baron in February of '22.
