Nikki, the female, got some sort of cancer in June 2020. She went downhill so fast. One week after I noticed her not acting right I had to take her for "the ride."

Mickey, her brother, was with me til the day after Easter this year. He was 18. His hips had been getting bad for a couple years and Easter weekend he could barely walk. He hadn't been able to groom himself properly either. So April 10 was his last day. Sad stuff.

But they had a great life here. I have a pet door, they could go in or out as they wish and always went out to "do their business," all woods around here, vermin to kill were endless. I had a food hopper in the kitchen, they could eat whenever they wanted, as much as they wanted.

I will get another kitten this summer. Hopefully it will out-live me.
Sorry for your losses
