Our old cat who must be 18 or so has been riggedy-raggedy for a while now but not ill at all, but has deteriorated over the last couple of weeks, so we had to make that awful decision to let him go.

Couldn't put him through that journey to the vets in a box, so have arranged a home visit by a vet so he can go peacefully sleeping on the sofa.



Absolutely in bits at the moment.

Beautiful cat. Sympathies Vixen - it's always a horrible moment. Good call with the home visit though, I didn't even know that was possible.

Absolutely beautiful animal. I’m sure you have given him a wonderful 18 years just in the same way he has to you. You absolutely cannot do more and can rest easy.

The grief will be awful. I’m so sorry.

Thanks for the kind words.

He was so tired and went with the total dignity he deserved.

RIP Katboy.

As someone who has recently had to do similar I hope the peacefulness with which they pass was a comfort to you.

An awful day for you. I hope with time it gets better.

My two are 15 so you do give me hope I have some years left ahead.

Sorry to read this brian. I know from what you've told me about him he had a fantastic life and was a good lad.
Drop me a line about going for a beer soon.
