Wow, quite a story! I just read through all 40 pages and have never seen this thread before today. Amazing and uplifting. I'm so happy for you that you have Raven with you, a year later and will have her for at least a dozen more!
My cat Tiger has been battling S.C.C. in his nasal passages since it was first discovered back in July and it has been a difficult time. But he, like Raven is a fighter and I think he will pull through too. Thank you so much for posting today because otherwise I would not have found this inspirational and wonderful thread.
p.s. Raven is absolutely beautiful!!
