I think I'm going to have to say goodbye to my boy :(

[NewNameWanted]

He's almost 16 years old and we've had him since he was six months old, but he's faded fast these past few days and hasn't eaten since Friday.

He is currently lying over the hot water pipes on the landing, his heart is humming and his breathing is getting laboured.

I'm not sure he'll last the night and if he's no better in the morning I think I'm going to have to say goodbye. I'm so sad. :(

Just to let you all know that tomorrow we will be welcoming a nine-month old kitten, Star, to our home. She is very cute and we picked her from the local CPL at the weekend.

I miss my boy massively but the house has a huge cat shaped hole in it.

Great! (We'll need a picture or two of course.)

Is DD excited?

DD is happy, although she was disappointed that we said no to two. We are keeping the name she has - we gave DD the choice whether to change her name or not.

Pictures will be forthcoming.
