Thanks Marylyn and Sally. I have never heard of an animal communicator. And no Sally I haven't taken him to the vet. We agreed though that we are going to before making a decision. My husband said he got so angry last night for what Lennie had done but says he doesn't want to have him put down if we can make some changes that may help him. I gave my husband a good lashing about getting angry about a poor old senile guy not knowing what he's doing and reminded him that there may come a day that he craps himself and hopefully no one will get angry at him. He's always been very close to Len, and I know he doesn't want to lose him. SO we are going to make an appointment to have him checked out and see if there is anything to help him. The only problem is, you know yourself that some vets will order every test ever invented and prescribe a ton of medication that honestly serves no purpose. I can almost predict what Len's vet will do. Prednisone and antibiotics, more blood work maybe even an x-ray. I've practically broke the bank with BooBoo, Snowy and Len. Still, we'll take him in for treatment and work on making a plan to help with "mistakes" at night. AND I am going to search around to see if there is an animal communicator in my area.
Again, thanks girls for the advice.

Our 19 year old should be leaving this world and I just can't deal with this. He is pretty much deaf, weak, frail yet eats like a piggy. But now he is not using his litter box all the time and is peeing just about everywhere. We have put litter boxes in every room, not the nicest thing for people who come over to have to see but I don't care about that. Last night he pooped in one and then pooped on the floor. He won't sit on our laps anymore. I've tried so hard to stimulate him by picking him up, grooming him, talking to him and there is just a blank stare like he isn't really in that body anymore. I just can't tell if he enjoys living or wants it to end. I wish they were allowed to talk just once in their lives so we could know for sure.
