This is very sad indeed. I know how hard it is to send a kitty to the Bridge. I just have to ask though.....if he is in pain, can hardly stand and can't use the LB, why are you waiting a week?? I know it's hard but if he's suffering, he needs to go to the Bridge now. Forgive me, I don't mean to be hurtful...I just need some clarification.

Yes, give him lots of loving and make sure you hold him when the time comes. It will comfort both of you.
