What have we done? Cats, 6; Tsu and Ivan, 2

Sad & sorry :(

Condolences for Isaac. Whenever I'm feeling blue I remember Tennyson. I hope you and Tsu are doing alright.

I hold it true, whate'er befall;
I feel it, when I sorrow most;
'Tis better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all.

Thanks again. It's sad but it goes with the turf. We've had to put down about thirteen animals now... I think. The worst was a period of about three years, during which we lost 7 animals, including our three dogs. That was seriously depressing. However, all but two were quite old. Our record holder is still Yiddo, a silver-shaded chinchilla persian, who make it to age 19.

It almost seems an inappropriate joke now, but for anyone who didn't see this, you might appreciate a pic of toothless Isaac sleeping.

As lisab observed, it is hard to get much more relaxed.

Did I scare anyone?

Well, he managed to last ten more weeks, but his quality of life continued to decline to the point where it was all bad from here on.

A very sad day, Isaac turned out to be a very special kitty who completely captured our hearts in the short time that we had him. He will be missed. Goodbye little buddy.
