Hopefully he knows we tried to make his life better.
    Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) is a full management plan in which stray and feral cats already living outdoors in cities, towns, and rural areas are humanely trapped, then evaluated, vaccinated, and sterilized by veterinarians. Kittens and tame cats are adopted into good homes. Healthy adult cats too wild to be adopted are returned to their familiar habitat under the lifelong care of volunteers

    Please do not beat yourself up!!! I think what you did for Scooter was above and beyond the call of duty!!! Scooter understood that you did all you could to help him. And he loved you for that. Perhaps he remained untamed so that you would not become too attached to him and when he left it would be easier for you, but now he knows differently. Scooter was so lucky that he had you to care for him and love him. Just think how different his life would have been if not for you....Sleep softly sweet Scooter... and (((((hugs))))) for you!!
    Nine is Fine!!

    Now listen, Lisa, go back in time.......If yu did NOT try the surgery, do you think you would have felt better about your decision to PTS?? NO! You know darned well that you would have thought "DARN, I didn't even give him a chance. " You could not have known back then that the surgery would not turn out 100%. None of us have that ability. All we can do is what is within our hearts (and means).

    I am certain that you are glad to have Scooter memories. And rest assured..... HE KNOWS.

    Lisa - I was looking for earlier threads of Scooter - when he got up in the towel rack, and lost the fear in his eyes...I couldn't find them.

    When you feel up to it, if you could post them...then you will SEE he had happy and cute days, and you made a HUGE difference to the little fella!

    HUGS!
