He drove you bonkers (and amused us regarding that!) but you were and are a great cat parent. I totally understand the decision (especially as I watch the long term struggles of a husky owner who has already spent almost 20k on trying to save his dog, with no end in sight...at what point does one say okay, that's it?). It is such a hard decision to make but there is this truth - when the day comes you and your heart are ready, the right kitty will finds his or her way to you, and that kitty will need you and you him or her, and it will be awesome, and beautiful, and you will have saved another life. That right there is a beautiful thing.

When I took Claire my Springer after she had already passed to the ER (I had no idea what to do with her!) that ER group was also just amazing and kind and sent me a beautiful card. Special people are they who work with pets!!!

I'm so sorry. It doesn't sound like you had any real choice though. Doesn't make it any easier. I used to have a cat that looked just like him.

Sometimes the hardest thing to do is love enough to let go, to suffer yourself in order to end another's suffering. I'm so sorry for your loss.
