Thanks, Tonya. I am glad, too, that I was holding him. I think for his last few hours he was only semi-conscious but I hope he could feel my arms and hear my voice.catatonya [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

Dear Susan,
Sending huge amounts of love and good wishes to Big Rik! I adore the grumpy old men! My Tommy is an old-timer, too, (not even sure how old), but he's also a bit weak in the hindquarters. My vet Wendy said it's from losing a bit of muscle mass due to the combination of age and
Thank you, Julie. Aren't our old guys wonderful. I am so sad to have to say that Big Rik died in my arms around 2am this morning. I had followed up on the suggestion of potassium - talked to my vet and added it to his SQ fluids. Late yesterday afternoon he seemed to rally a bit but it didn't last

Dear Susan,
How very sorry I am for your loss; what a deep and special bond you andBig Rik must have developed over 19.5 years. What an extraordinary life! Still, it's never enough time when it's time for them to leave us, is it? I know what you mean about that bite; I have scratches down my

Dear Susan, I am so sorry for your loss. I know just how you feel, we all do. It is not any easier losing an old guy just because they have had a long life. I think it is much harder because we have had them with us for so long that they become a part of us. I have 20 cats and 15 of them are 13
