    Yes, I'm trying to find some comfort in that thought, too. If she had taken him home today (as it was planned), he would have been on his own again the next days, because she'll be going on another trip with her kids on Thursday. Considering that, I'm really glad that he was still at the vet's when it happened.

    Rest in peace, dearest little Benny, with your sister again.

    RIP sweet kitty. He's in a better place. Play hard at the Rainbow Bridge.

    As for the owner, I have no words. I plan my vacations around my cats - they come first! Others may think that's weird, that I'm a crazy cat lady, but so what. They're my babies and will always come first.

    Not a chance! If my boy needed me to stay home I'd stay home.

    So sorry that Benny has gone although this sentence did make me a bit cross "but I don't think she's in the position to spend much more money on him" - she managed a vacation though.

    However, all water under the bridge now so RIP little puss xx
