Poor Smokey. It must be so hard for your mom & you to see
him showing the signs of old age. I once read an essay called
"How do you know when it's time". I think it covers the topic of
aging & illness in pets very well. You might suggest it to your mom. It's a very difficult but necessary topic for all pet lovers to
think about. Gentle hugs to Smokey.
