re: #131 Anymouse

I had a cat with kidney failure. I was going to put him down, but at the last minute I couldn’t do it.

I kept him alive for around 18 months by force feeding him and giving him subcutaneous fluids multiple times a day. I didn’t get a day off for the entire 18 months, and I imagine the total cost of keeping him alive would have bought me a late model pickup.

Still, I’m glad I did it, because up till the very end he was pretty much a normal cat. Plus his brother would have missed him.

So good luck with yours. It isn’t easy or cheap, but it’s even harder to let them go as long as there’s a chance.
