Sally, my New Year's resolution is to find the usb cable and start posting pictures . Aurra is doing well and eating like a pig! The other cats are ambivalent, except when she goes near 'their' food dishes! I have to feed her separately until she's big and brave enough to deal with them. I feel the same as you guys about pet care. If you can't properly take care of them do not have them. I spread kitty checkups out so I'm not hit with a giant bill all once. I love my cats like as is they're part of the family coz they are . I don't believe in putting my animals through torturous procedures for my own selfish reasons though. If one of my cats gets cancer there won't be surgery or kitty chemo. I'll have he or she put down and I'll be right there with them. I owe them that . I've had to do this in the past and it is unbelievably hard but I just feel that it's the right thing to do.
