I just had to take Emily to the vet for the last time, she didn't quite
make her 19th birthday, but a good innings none the less. She was very calm
and relaxed at the vet which was totally unlike her, no fight left. So I
know it was the right thing to do, still hurts like hell though.

so sorry to hear that, Nik. Some might think that having got her a great
age it is easier to let her go, IME it isn't.
Purrs for your heart.

I agree with you. In fact, I think there are ways in which it becomes more
difficult to let go--we become closer and closer to our companions as the
years go by. We may know that we will have to face the "reality" of limited
time on earth as our cats get older, but that does not make it easier to let
go.

So very sorry. Thanks for letting us know. I grieve for cats (and
their people) that I've never even met.
