    Slick, I'm so sorry to hear this, I know how it breaks your heart to see Max like this. It's such a shame that the Sub-Q fluids didn't work out, I wish he would start drinking more. The way he sits and stare at nothing does indicate that he is going a bit senile. Fister will that sometimes too. Is he meowing more, also?

    I hope the vet can come up with some treatment that will help him!

    Fister and I are sending lots of purrs and positive thoughts to Max and big hugs to you!

    I'm so sorry to hear about Max. I know there is little comfort in knowing that most of us have been down this road before, but we can share some of your feelings.

    Maybe a trip to the vet will help. I know it did when a couple of our elders were not themselves. Treasure every moment with Max; I'm sure he's enjoying sleeping under the tree.

    Hugs, purrs and gentle pets to you and Max...............

    I am so sad for you. Goodness, we all love our babies so much here that when one is sick, it does effect us all and reminds us all what a short time we have with our own babies.

    Just love him while you can, as hard as you can and as much as you can.

    Such a sad update, but one we'll all go through some day. Loving a pet means one day you will lose them .

    I wish you as many days with Max as God allows.

    I, like the others, am sad to read your update. It is so hard to see a beloved friend fail. You do the best you can to keep Max loved and comfortable. Will keep you in prayers and will light a candle....Take Care...Sandra

    Prayers and hugs for you and Max.

    There are some meds for dementia - I don't recall which one Mary was going to use- but yes, a checkup sounds like the plan.

    Is the vet close enough that you could take Max in for weekly sub-q's, if that is a plan?

    Max did so amazingly well after his last checkup...prayers that he can get a little more quality time with his Meowmie.

    Hugs and prayers for you and Max. Perhaps there is something the vet can do so a visit might be a good idea.
