Christmas Presents

That sucks Harley!

18 years is a great run for a cat though. I've had three and none of them made it past 13. The great memories live on though

<br>I already got two presents, one I wanted and one that was a great surprise. The one I wanted was tickets to see Duran Duran in Austin on Dec 11 from my mother-in-law for my wife and I, and my wife got me a hand made coffee mug with a drawn picture of my cat that is dying of cancer on it. My wife wrote a little saying for it and that was a great present.

This present has taken on a huge signifcance to me now........we are taking my cat to the vet tomorrow to put him to sleep. He can hardly walk and isn't eating or going to the bathroom much anymore. We are going to get him cremated as well......so fucking hard to say goodbye to him. I've had him for 18 years and we've had so many things happen together. I'm really going to miss him a lot, he's my best friend, my baby boy. [:(][:(][:(][:(]

<p align="justify">I had to take the family cat to the vet to euthanise her. She's not my cat and I was pretty stoic throughout most of the ordeal until the very final moment - then I felt really really sad[:(] She was only 7 years, too[:(][:(]

It's always sad to have to put the family pet down. I had to put 2 cats and 1 dog down within 18 months of each other, all due to old age. They ranged in age from 14-16. Just remember, you did this because you cared enough for your pet to not let it suffer.

Sorry about your family loss, Harley. It never gets easier. My numero uno hombre Shedder died this past spring, and it still hurts like hell to just think about him. My girlfriend painted a picture of him recently and I haven't had the nuts to look at it yet because I know I'll probably bust out crying. Amazing how strong our bonds can be with our animal friends.

Sorry about your loss, Harley!
Remember the good times. Keep them right up front in your memory bank!

Thank you everyone, it's been a very hard day for me and my wife. It was 4 years ago on Jan 1 that she met Buddy and then on this Jan 2 we had to put him to sleep. She was more upset than she thought she was going to be...I'm a mess right now.

Here is a picture of the mug she got made for me and a picture of Buddy.
