    Had to put down my old friend

    Today was a hard day for me. My old man Sam was going down hill very fast in the last few weeks. The vet said they could not find anything wrong with him. He stopped eating Sat. and was just sleeping the whole time. He lost control of his bladder last night. I made the decision with my better half last night that I would take him on his final journey today. Sam is the grey on the left.

    I'm sorry for you loss tomme...I know how much it hurts to make that last trip with a loved animal. Our world is full of little ones like them that need a good home. I hope your heart heals soon and you make a place for one of those.

    I feel your pain. There are 4 grey or grey and white cats that let us live with them. Used to be 5.

    Looks like a special friend. Hopefully you'll find peace in the fact that because of you and your wife, Sam had the best care possable.
