I am a cat lover too. I lost my scruffy last year, a 21 year old rag doll. I do hope your kitty can go on for awhile yet. I so understand that pain of having to let a pet go. When I put Scruffy down, I only waitied 5 months before I adopted Sammy a very very big adult cat. He has allowed the grief to pass. I only have the one right now, but just maybe I will adopt again. There is nothing better than a kitty in bed with you, well maybe a dog for the dog lovers. ginnie
