Oh my gosh, thank you Candace! I think you and I posted at the same time because I only saw your post and Sandra's post after I posted!

You know, I've never seen the musical Cats, can you believe that?! I was going to look it up so I could see what cat Tracey was talking about but now I don't have to! Thank you. And thank you for the pics you posted and your words.

Sandra, in my most recent post a few minutes ago, I wrote that I might bring him in on Monday if he continues to do okay, like he is today. I'm hoping the Metacam will help him. I've decided to give it to him and stop the pred. But I think that is the nicest idea to light a candle and I will definitely post the day and time when I will be bringing him in. For now, I think it will be Monday.

ETA: I meant to mention in this post that after reading about Grizabella, I completely agree that Barney is so similar to her character and he is indeed a 'disshevelled beauty'. And as you wrote Candace, I too hope there is a Heaviside Layer (Heaven). I feel certain there is.
