She is the one pictured in my avatar. She was old (19) and was showing her age....so her death was not unexpected.
Boy it is amazing how attached we get to these little fury creatures.
If you have pets be sure to treat them well since they won't be around forever. |

|  | Registered User | | Join Date: May 2008 Location: Studio City, CA | | | My family had a cat that passed at age 21. The family buried her in the back yard and grieved for a month. When I came back off the road it was the first thing I did when I got back.
My son has taken in a blind cat that was in a parking lot. It's been several months and the cat has mapped out his place really well. She has a brain tumor and has a seizure every now and then, but otherwise is just as sassy, lazy and faux-regal as most of the species.
Sorry for your loss....

You must have taken very good care of her.
I lost both of my cats in the last 2 years. The oldest was also 19 years old when she died.
Got a 15 year old dog to take care of now, but when he goes I'll get another cat or two. |
