We have to take Stripe, our 22 pound cat, this evening to be put to sleep. He's been diagnosed with a neurological disorder (aside from stress from the dog) and his outlook was very grim. :( We have not told the boys. They knew that he needed a new home, and we are just going to tell them that we found him one.
Oh my, I am sorry. I've been wanting a kitty lately. I miss my own that I had to leave about five years ago. I pray that all goes well with telling your boys!
That stinks. I'm sorry. Loosing pets is always hard on kids too.
I remember getting a call a work from my Vet saying that my cat had FIP and needed to be put to sleep. I started crying at my desk (I worked at a bank) and had to go to the back. My boss offered to let me go home early. I felt so stupid that I was getting so emotional at work, and over a cat no less. But I just couldn't keep it together.
