    18-yr-old domestic housecat.....time to say goodbye?

    Hi Furrballsmom, Vet said it's maintenance at this point. Which to me means I'm simply keeping him alive with the fluids. It's heartbreaking to see how he's changed.

    JimmySoxx came into my life at 6 weeks old and he will be 19 in April. He has a heart murmur and chronic kidney disease. Very recently he had a bad bout of constipation. Two enemas helped with the constipation but now he won't eat or drink. I've been administering subcutaneous IV for the last 3...
