I did a quick search to day to see if you had posted any new stories and came across this. Though it is belated I am so sorry for your loss. Jethro is another cat that will stay in my memory now. Making him unforgotten. he lives in my heart now also.
Almost one year later and I am just seeing your post...I am so sorry it was Jethro's time to make his final journey. I too, have my eyes filled with tears just reading his story. It sounds like he fought the good fight and I am sure he loved you and all that you did to help him. But I totally know how bad it hurts when it is their time to cross the Rainbow Bridge, there is never enough time with our babies.
