Thanks for all the great opinions. It is so good to hear from others because even though I TRY to see both sides, I often miss things.

#1) No, cancer is not 100% confirmed. But it is easier to ask the question based on one fact and not a choice of diseases. And, as SAS can confirm, dealing with IBD is not a heck of a whole lot easier than dealing with terminal cancer.

#2) Mr. Meow, can and WILL stay here with me. I love him and he fits in with my cats 100%.

#3) As Jennie fears, our director Joyce tends to take the "no-kill" to the EXTREME! There is no way I would allow that to happen. While he is in my home he is my responsibility. I will be the one who knows him the best.
