grendel Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Well thats too many too close together, last night during the night our 23 year old boy Boo passed on, we gave him a good life, but he just wore out through old age, Rest peacefully old boy, see you at the Rainbow bridge. we have now lost our 3 oldest cats over the last 3 months, though I believe the youngest was at least 17 years old. We are now down to 4 cats, the oldest of those is under 10 years old so we hopefully have a few years yet before the next sad event. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riyadhcrew Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Dying at that age just shows how good a life you gave them, but sad all the same. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bound2Please Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Sorry to hear that Grendel, but at least he had a good life unlike so many other poor cats. Charlie 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regulo Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 That's a really good age for a cat! We never got any of ours past 13. The sadness of losing a much-loved pet is always tempered in time with good memories of them. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grendel Posted September 17, 2016 Author Share Posted September 17, 2016 To be honest caring for elderly cats can be quite stressful at times, Boo was almost totally deaf (or totally ignored us), and Ingrid went blind in the weeks before she passed, all this makes caring for them more difficult, so with only the younger ones left we are hoping for a good few incident free years now. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
