Re: Oldest Catsey Cat???


I don't have any pics of my childhood cat that are copyable, Scamper was a semi longhaired ginger boy; disappeared one day at age 17.... a grand age for an outdoor cat! We always assumed he went up to the woods to die; he hadn't seemed ill, but they are so good at masking signs of illness,

Re: Oldest Catsey Cat???


My brown tabby Gem was 21 when she was pts last August, due to vets mis-diagnosing her and giving wrong meds... Heartbreaking... I truly believe she would have seen out a couple of more years... Not one day of illness EVER until that fateful 24 hours... If only I could rewind the clock...

My gang are 14,14,13 & 12

All seem like spring chickens just now but I know that I'm going to have a sad time soon with all of them being so similar in age.
