I usually have cats but lost my last one when he was 17 years old. I managed to deal with that ok as I just thought to myself what a long and happy life he had. When they die prematurely of illness though ................................

I've moved on to tropical fish now.

Gill.

I know. After my Mom passed away(then I had no one to watch him - and I would never kennel him), I planned every vacation around pet friendly hotels, locations, etc... What a pain! But he was my child. I spent 15K on his cancer treatments, and while I don't regret a penny, I just don't want to go through that again.

After this cat, that's it....
