Re: Please add Big Rik to the special needs list - Big Rik has died

Dear Susan, I am so sorry for your loss. I know just how you feel, we all do. It is not any easier losing an old guy just because they have had a long life. I think it is much harder because we have had them with us for so long that they become a part of us. I have 20 cats and 15 of them are 13 yrs and older. I have been so lucky having them with me for so long as most are felv+ and should have pass yrs ago according to the vets. Right now I have and old guy Bubba 16 who is so sick and dying of kidney failure. He wants to live so bad he just want give up. It's so hard watching him. The only good thing I can say is be grateful Big Rik went so quickly. You'll be in my prayers.  Sheila
