Early yesterday morning we had to have our eldest cat, Millie, put to
sleep. She was 19 years old and had been suffering with kidney failure
for over a year. Millie was David's cat, but loved graetly by both of
us and our other four kitties. She is alrady deeply missed.

Sorry for you, Wayne......Cat's (and all pets) become part of our families,
and their loss can be quite devastating to us....
We (my family) have had many cats over the years, but also, they live for a
much shorter a time than us humans....
19 years though is a mighty good age for a cat to live to, Wayne........I
have had to put down at least 2 of my beloved cats for kidney failure over
the years...but both had reasonably long cat lives...
My son Timothy (28), who lives with me still (unmarried as yet) lost his 3
year old 'Oriental' when it wandered over the road and was hit and
killed....He searched for her for days, putting up signs all around the
surrounding street's, and a neighbour opposite found her in her garden,
dead, and obviously had been hit by a car, and placed there by the person
who hit her!......That was about 4 months ago now.....He has just purchased
a Seal Point Siamese kitten 2 weeks ago, and is overjoyed with her
(Bella)....We have always had Pure Seal Points cats in the past, except for
the Oriental!
Anyway, Wayne, my condolences to you, and ignore the rude comment made to
you by 'Bryan'...very uncalled for!
