    That's exactly what I think...my sister's older cat is sixteen, too...she might be less active and very calm and used to her daily routine, but she's a happy cat and I know she would prefer to be rehomed in a calm environment, rather than to be put to death...

    It's so sad that children don't take responsibilty for their parent's beloved pets after they have died...

    At least these two cats have each other and some cats really make it to a very ripe old age...I would love to see that they would find someone who appreciates their wise and experienced characters and love them for what they are: CATS...no matter what age...they've been young, too...and they've been loved, too...and they deserve to get a second chance, too!!!
