Robin you did a great thing taking in those 2cats and I hope you do it again, although I know euthanasia is emotionally taxing. I think Moe could benefit from a "lion" cut.Carolinenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34039605.post-32533252904771670382010-09-21T21:56:44.529-04:002010-09-21T21:56:44.529-04:00There is a special place in my heart for the senio...There is a special place in my heart for the seniors too. I have adopted many over the years and the two Siamese were both adopted as seniors, one at 14 (10 years ago) and one at 20 (1 1/2 years ago) They are still healthy & doing fine. Ginny who will be 24 soon is now blind but is sitting on my knee in my office as I type this and purring her little old heart out. She manages well. Don't think twice about adopting a senior...they can give you many good years of companionship.

Sad obviously but glad that they did indeed get months of love and they did not have to die at the shelter. I unintentionally adopted a somewhat senior cat when Chico turned out to be around 11 years old, and I'm sad that I won't have as much time with him, but it makes me cherish everyday more now :)<br /><br />and YAY MOE!!!!! I remember the trouble you had getting him out of the shelter and I was so glad when you were finally able to, hehe and now look how happy he is :) Warmed my heart to see it, I can't wait to get back to rescuing when I'm home, sorry I'm missing kitten season, but I may be home now in the new year instead of April...hehe and you know that I'll be just like Shannon, on the phone with you to hook me up with some fosters!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10191645783405827651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34039605.post-36016785609711340772010-09-21T20:29:56.899-04:002010-09-21T20:29:56.899-04:00So sweet (wiping away tears) =)So sweet (wiping away tears) =)JenLnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34039605.post-40264791061755622272010-09-21T19:14:06.157-04:002010-09-21T19:14:06.157-04:00God Bless the people who took in George & Turb...God Bless the people who took in George & Turbo and loved them till the end...you are special.<br /><br />Moe looks so happy, healthy and loved even though his is a bit chubby.

After having a cat...Robin's email was so sweet. After having a cat that recently passed, although not a senior one, really touched me...because the truth of the matter is, we never know how long we have with our furry friends, no matter what the age and should cherish them everyday. I am so happy these older kitties got a second chance at happiness. <br /><br />Just wanted to also let you know Beth that I am still here reading your blog everyday, just have not been posting as much. I still miss my Luke so much and wonder if the other cats know she is not coming back after 2 months. I have to stop thinking that way, that is when the guilt kicks in again. <br />Keep up the ongoing wonderful job you do.<br />SarahHomeToManynoreply@blogger.com
