CleverCat, It is never easy, they stick in our hearts and give us unforgettable moments. The love you have for her will never leave, and she is lucky to have had such a great life  Here's to hoping she has a full year of happiness ahead of her! She seems like a fighter!

Hey Clever Cat...
Some good-byes are harder than others. As is doing the right thing.
It's a responsibility we accept when we bring a dog or cat into our lives.
I'm sure you'll do what's best for her when and if a decision is called for.
I'm sure she knows you will too.

The morning after...  Greyhounds are always happy to pose in a sleeping position for you. Laziest dogs I have known. Except for the sprint to the food bowls and then to the soft comfy places.  Top to bottom these are Johnson (7), Athena (10) and Finch (14).

Yes, indeed. (Even the cats we have had were rescues.) A year after we were married my wife and I adopted as a companion for our Golden a wonderful 10-year old girl, Rae-Rae, who had been living in the rescue kennel for almost a year because she was old, she had unsightly (though benign) tumors on her teats, and she had horrible teeth. But she had beautiful deep brown eyes that sparkled and laughed at us and she delighted in our attention. She was a true angel  . We had her for three years before a cancer took her from us suddenly, less than a month after we lost our golden retriever. Since then we have taken in mostly tough sells - one big girl who was terrified of the wind and the feel of grass under her feet, another girl who was dropped off after she had damaged her back from a fall and couldn't walk properly. One girl we adopted, also 10, had developed bone cancer; she was with us for almost two months and had just started feeling happy and excited when her humans came home when things came to a head. Johnson had developed seizures, and Athena was 9 when her owner became tired of her. Our times with our dogs are short, but that's just a reason to treasure every moment. I think that lesson has helped us with our kids, who we adopted in our late 40s; there are often times when I have to grit my teeth and tell myself "treasure this moment!"

@x16wda - I suspected as much. My hat is off to you sir!  Our past and present pet lineup included: eight cats + seven dogs (save for two who came from breeders) + one lop-ear rabbit who came to us as rescue animals. Please don't even get me started about the horses.

@40hz - my wife would like to get you started on the horses!  Personally speaking, I know they are smart and wonderful creatures, but I am just intimidated by the size.

I've got 9 horses, and sometimes I think they're dumber than a box of rocks....  That pretty much matches my experience too.  Some are smarter than others. But as a collective group, they're not the world's smartest creatures as we measure smart. But that's just to us. As horses sans human involvement goes, they understand everything they need to understand to do what horses do. (Which is mostly: walk, run, look around, drink water, reproduce, sleep, eat, and secrete waste.) But to their credit, horses certainly are interesting 'people' to get to know. And they sure are pretty to look at.  @X16wda - tell you what... why don't we just pair up the horse nuts and let them get started while the rest of us head out for drinks. They won't even notice we're gone.
