I've been following your thread and I am so sorry to hear about your baby, Mort.

A few years back, I lost my Misty to CRF and it was a long hard road...as you know.

My thoughts & prayers are with you & your family.

I'm so sorry your going through all this. It sounds like Mort is the way Smokey was on her last day of life. I made the decision no one wants to make at that point. I pray that you do not have to make the decision. I hope you find the same peace I did after Smokey was gone. She had suffered for so long that when it was over I was just glad she was out of pain.
Many hugs to you as you go through this difficult time.

I can't make that decision yet. I laid with her this afternoon and talked to her about her time with me since she was a kitten. We have gone thru so much together. She is getting very weak in the hind legs, but she has been slowly getting to her water and food. Please forgive me for rambling. One day I may look back on this thread as a sort of diary. I know that her time here is very short now. I want so bad for her to be able to lay in peace in her own home while she passes on. Tomorrow is a new day and I will be with her all day. If she seems to be in lots of pain I will take her in. Rick will be with me tomorrow so I will have lots of loving support. Mort is cuddled up in Ricks coat right now sleeping.

You have all been a wonderful support group and I thank you for being here.

Many, many hugs to you during this difficult time. Praying that Mort feels little pain no matter what turn she takes. She must feel very warm and loved tonight.

The cats house, we just pay the mortgage..
I only just came across this thread, I'm so sorry for Mort and you and your husband. I hope her passing is peaceful and at home like you want, but I think if thats not possible you will know when the time is right. This has brought a tear to my eye.

Update on Mort...She survived another day and is feeling a little better. She is up and about and not so weak in her hind legs. She is a fighter! Bless her heart. Another day that I get to spend with my buddy..

How sad. I hope she has a peaceful passing and that you and she both enjoy your remaining time together. It sounds like she had a wonderful long life.

You all have been a great support system for me, Thank you so very much!

Mort is still fighting like a champ. She is eating, and we are still giving her sub-q's. She is really getting thin even though she is eating. Last night she tried to bring us one of her stuffed toys. She was always bringing us her little stuffed toys. Sometimes she would bring us several of her toys to bed and drop them on us! What a sweet little girl she is.
