People can be so rude. I don't know how to put the words I want into comfort, but I just want you to know that all of us are here for you, and want you to do what you want, and what will be best for Lily.

I still think that she is beautiful, and I know how you feel about protecting your cats. Cleo and Phoebe can't go outside, and they can't sit in open window, either. We take them to the vet when they get sick, even though money is getting tight.

I think that you need to do what feels right for you, but I believe that Lily should be your cat.
