    Thank you Randi for posting this text for us!!!!
    Zazou is still the same, not eating anything... .
    But, we're sure she still enjoyes being around:
    ---> She has always enjoyed playing in our garden. Playing with leaves, chasing the birds, etc... ; though she is very weak, she keeps begging to be allowed to go outside... . This morning my husband went outside with her, and she was really happy with this. Then he put her on the ground and let her do that's she loves most: walk around. He followed her making sure she couldn't go into hiding. She went to all her favorite places. 10 minutes later, they both came back inside. We're so glad to let her do this, because she really loved it; she was purring all the time! Right now she is back in her favorite basket

    We won't help her to cross the bridge yet, not when she doesn't want this.....

    Thanks for caring!
    Zazou is not eating anymore, at most 5 to 10g per day is her maximum..... , today nothing yet...
    She is now skin and bone .....!
    But despite this, she is still so enjoying her favorite habits as walking in the garden, visiting all her favorite spots there, watching the birds (we always hang birdfood in our trees), dreaming of catching a birdie, porring whenever we pet her, etc.... . Because of these things, we just don't have the heart to go to the vet and letting him help her to the Bridge.... . Are we doing wrong?? I don't really know....
    We both love her immensely much

    As long as she is enjoying herself, you are doing nothing wrong, Lut! Enjoy every day with her, as I know you are. These days and moments are precious as diamonds.

    As Karen said, as long as Zazou can still find joy in her daily routines, there's nothing wrong with leaving her be and loving her as much as you do.
    I think these are the hardest moments living with a beloved pet. No matter what, there is always guilt involved, and talking to the vet and other pet parents can be helpful.
    It is important though to assess your own comfort level even if Zazou still seems to be enjoying life.
    Does it bother you to see her like this... The exact right moment can never be known.

    What good news! We're so glad you enjoyed your time outdoors with Dad, complete with a nice walk around to all your favorite places!

    Wonderful warm wishes to sweet Zazou and you all from us.
