@shianne Suzanne, Thank you for kind words of sympathy, and THANK YOU for sharing your thoughts that you may have waited too long for dear Spirit. You have done our community a service by sharing that. I had lunch with a friend whose cat had a mass similar to Walter’s that ruptured. My friend told me “Toni, she was in agony. Don’t let that happen to Walter”. I heard and heeded those words every day and it made the decision so much easier, knowing Walter wouldn’t suffer the unneccessary pain his beloved cat did. I may have waited too long last year with my Deanna “Beauty Girl”, too. We learn to let go before they needlessly suffer and I hope you find comfort for yourself knowing Autumn Ranger and Saraya received the best of your love in letting them go. You are a kind, loving pet person and I am truly grateful to have you in our community. My best wishes and thoughts are with you. Toni

Hi Toni,
Sorry I’ve been so out of touch. Thank you for thinking of me and checking in. I meant to let you know I would be unable to make the August zoom meeting as I was doing last minute vacation preparations, as I left the next day for twice two weeks to visit family in NH. I was also very worried about whether or not I’d be able to get one of my two new boys into the carrier to bring to NH with me. Thankfully all worked out and the 4 of us made it safely to NH and back again. I fulfilled my promises that I made to both Spirit and Autumn Ranger. On August 4, I welcomed two bonded 9 year old declawed boys, Oliver and Sebastian. I chose to keep their given names since they were older boys and I didn’t want to confuse them. They ended up back in the shelter after their human had to enter a nursing home. Oliver is a very out going and friendly and is nicknamed by me, Mr. Pudge, as he weighs in at 17 1bs. We’re trying to work on loosing some weight but time will tell. H… -
Suzanne, what a thoughtful note you’ve sent. I am so glad you have your mother with you. Enjoy her company. My girl took medicine for her kidneys (you can have them compounded into a flavored liquid, which was a lot easier for us both. Pencol did ours and may be able to help you – https://pencolpharmacy.com/ ). Also, acupuncture helped her by stimulating blood flow to the kidneys. She didn’t mind it one bit.
Regarding the photos: we’re researching and believe the issue is with iPhones, and how Apple formats and saves the photos with one of the latest updates. Currently, it isn’t compatible with WordPress (and the wider internet) by default. It might take some time until there is widespread support for the new format. I know this isn’t ideal, but you can save photos as JPG files (the standard photo format) and the upload will work. Let us know if it doesn’t.
Oliver (Mr. Pudge) and Sebastian sound great and I hope you can get their photos up. 17 pounds is BIG and when I was taking care of Boots, he was 15 lbs. but wasn’t fat – just, “Pudgy” :-). Sebastian will come around. Poor things, they don’t know what happened to their person, and will become accustomed to you and their new environment. And hey, nothing wrong with butt scratches! You are very kind and generous to open your home and heart again. Spirit and Autumn Ranger are happy for you all. Thank you for the kind words of support you share. We know it means so much, and look forward to hearing more from you. Happy petting!! Toni

@shianne Suzanne, I see your tributes to Eragon and Morgaine. Those are powerful names. Will you share some pictures of them, and tell us about them, please? Are you holding up okay?
