  I just found out my oldest cat Sammi has cancer. She follows me around, sits
in my lap and sits on my computer desk when I am doing things. She sleeps in
my arms all night along with the 4 other cats that sleep on my legs and feet.
I cannot move for most of the night because I do not want them to leave. I
care for my cats, especially her, more than anything else except my family and
country. She helped me deal with the death of my 18 year old cat in 2008 by following
me around and insisting on being with me and has always been very vocal when
I am not home. We have a very special bond that is much stronger than I have
with my other six cats that I also love dearly.
I do not mean to use Bricklink as somewhere to lay my ills, but I am not on any
other social media and have a very small family, none of which are in El Paso.
I know that there are many cat lovers here and other pet lovers. This is the
only place to try and share my grief. For all the members that have beloved
pets cherish them as much as possible while they are with you.

John, despite my large stature, I'm such a softie when it comes to pets.
The last time one of our fuzzbutts made her last trip to the vet, I was so relieved
they had such a great staff. I could barely croak out a word, as I was choking
back the tears. I feel for you, and share your grief at what is to come.

Thank you for the reply. It is so hard and I think that only loving pet owners
can share such thoughts. I cannot hold back my tears anymore. At seventy-five
I do not care if anyone sees my emotions.
Take care,
John P
