Elmo came to us as a stray six week old on December 5, 2001... and died December 5, 2011...
I had a real problem facing the euthanasia issue, my wife didn't as much because she disliked our poking pill capsules down his throat atleast twice a day. But I will tell you, I had the most relief and comfort reading Gareth's post "when the moment comes" than anything. I spent Tuesday and Wednesday second guessing myself... Gareth's post helped tremendously...
Our 13 year old tortoiseshell Georgie does seem to be going through some seperation anxiety, either vocaling a lot, or being quiet and hiding.
Thanks for everyone's kind comments and concern...
