I'm so glad he got to talk with you on the phone! And it sounds like Denny is trying to at least keep him comfortable and safe. Sending you love and support with heartfelt prayers that Blacky will rally. {{{HUGS}}} Sandra
That is exactly what I told them, however they are scared to move him, because he looks so frail. Denny is actually scared to pick him up, and well, he's not the friendliest old guy on the block anymore. Whenever something happens to the cats they always call me first, which is great and all, but I would prefer them to be taken to the vets first. I am very afraid that if they take him to the vet he will be euthanized.

So I am trying as hard as I can to have them take him to the vet. There is always a chance of getting into some kind of poison or antifreeze when he's outdoors, and I know the neighborhood, not all the neighbors are clean. I will update you as soon as I know anything. I don't know why they keep him outdoors when he is so old.

There is a chance he could pull through, and hopefully he is just tired. It's just so scary. I have never had to say goodbye to a cat for the longest time. Too bad I am not a cat spychic and could talk to him!


Yes, I always talk to the kitties on the phone. Especially Baby!
