So sad. But it is good to bring up this discussion so people can think about these things.

While I trust that they'd be taken care of, I really need to get it in writing.
This has actually started to worry me, I know my cats are that, i.e. cats not people but I do love them and I have a minimum standard of essential care which others see as spoiling them.

I wouldn't leave them to my sister as she likes my pretty young cats (though I'm not sure what she means they are ALL beautiful) and would not even try to rehome Georgie. She thinks he is old (He is only middle aged somewhere between 11 and 15 years old.)

Although my mum would look after them all, she disagrees with providing good quality (expensive) food and would not keep up the pet insurance as she thinks it is a waste of money.

She thinks cats should stay downstairs and off furniture at all times (Life is too short, for these kind of rules)

I'm going to have to think about it.

Maybe I can request that they go to Thornberry with a list of instructions and a small donation to the shelter.

Thornberry is a No kill shelter set in farm land, keeps all cats for life if they can not rehome them.
