Cats
I returned home from my trip this afternoon unfortunately to find my dear old Molly is not doing well at all. We had her to the vet before I left because she is so weak and thin (1.9 kilos) but I didn't want to make any hasty decisions before leaving. I was afraid something would happen while I was away, but she has hung on and I think she may have been waiting for me to come home! She has deteriorated since I've been gone; she has trouble walking, and now she is struggling for breath when she purrs. I lay on the bed and she staggered over to me and gave me a gentle head butt on my cheek that was so sweet, but I know she was telling me it's time to let her go.
I'm going to contact my vet tomorrow and we will discuss helping her to the bridge. My goodness it's so hard...

Molly and I would like to say thank you to all who responded to my post yesterday. I was doubting my judgement and it has been enormously reassuring to hear from so many mums in the CB who shared their experiences, advice and compassion...
