Cats

[Nycturne]

We're now in the end stages here. Had the last appointment with vet folks that she'll probably ever have this morning. Looks like a cancer has progressed far enough that chemotherapy won't do much good, and isn't worth it. Don't know which cancer is ultimately getting her, although it is academic at this point.

She's starting to wind down it looks like, but she does seem to still like going outside. Maybe a couple weeks at this point.

We seem to have acquired some sort of Mondoshiwan

So sorry to hear.

I ordered some stupid little clear plastic cats that you can stuff some of their hair in. Made my daughter cry which was not my intention, but she had some of his hair (from almost a year ago) so she was glad she had someplace to put it.

Now, this is just hamming it up.

So sorry to hear. I hope her time left lets you enjoy her company and that she’s not in pain.

Unfortunately, her decline was faster than we were really prepared for. She started to hemorrhage yesterday, and so we had someone come out to help her pass peacefully in our back yard. At least she was able to enjoy her last hour in the sun with her family, and tear apart a tortilla chip with what appetite she had left.

I have a photo frame in the office which currently is rotating through mostly memories of our cat. This morning I came in to see a rather appropriate one for my mood:

And may as well share another of one of her walks. She loved to hang out in the yard with us, but it wasn't until she got on the IBD/Lymphoma meds that she felt well enough to wander up and down the street.

One of our black cats has a brown undercoat like that. In fact, we named him Coco as a kitten because he was chocolate brown.

My black cat's the same way. She also has grey fur under her cat armpits.

Such a pretty cat.

We are having problems with ours right now; diagnostics inconclusive. A stray rescued by my wife's greyhound and tolerated by mine, she is the last survivor of a quartet of the hounds and my wife's Siamese cat. It will be the end of a significant chapter when she passes. I hope she will have another year or two of good quality-of-life.
