Pooskat has cancer added to her woes, and is fading fast. Cats are good at hiding pain and distress, but you can tell she's miserable.
Arranged for cremation, and she will be added to the mantle.

(12,161 posts)It's not something I think all should do, when we've had one of our beloved fur people need that last trip I want to be there with my hand on them. It hurts so bad, but it does give them some comfort at the end. Peace.

Peace to you and to Pooskat.

(4,940 posts)You gave Pooskat a great life, and she deserves your grief. I have 6 in "their" baskets. Always missed, always mourned, and always provide heart warmth and laughs for every second they lived.
For Pooskat - my 6 will help escort you over the Rainbow Bridge.
