My Twicket could use some good thoughts...

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

I'm so sorry to hear Twicket is starting to fail.

Although I have to admit that I know exactly how you are feeling because I went through the very same thing with Tubby not so long ago.

The only thing I can suggest is Cosequin http://www.petvetdirect.com/home.asp?cid=118

This is for arthritis and joint problems in cats. It seemed to help Tubby a bit and I know one of Catsnclay's kitties started jumping on the counters again once she started giving him Cosequin.

Other than that all I can offer are {{{hugs}}} and prayers that he continues to hang on for awhile and that he will let you know when it's time.

As terrible as it sounds, I'd really like it if he just fell asleep and forgot to wake up, when the time comes.

Again I know exactly how you feel because I felt the same way quite often towards the end with Tubby.

Oh Twicket, I sure wish I could head up your way and snuggle with you before it's time for you to go. I'd love to hear your purr and help carry you around and help spoil you rotten to help make up for all the "wasted years." I'm so glad your meowmy found you and gave you at least 2 wonderful years and I wish you many many more.
