Bad news for Ralph Syracuse

[Kirsten]

Sandra, I'm thinking a lot of you and Ralph these days, and it's good to hear that Ralph is doing well and enjoying his time with his family.

I also wanted to say that I think you did the right thing. I don't think I would put a cat of his age through the ordeal of the chemo. I hope he will be around you for many many more months.

Again, thank you all for your kind words. I think the prednisone has kicked in. Ralph was like him old self today, getting into things and trouble!! I had to yell at him for biting Nicholas' ear after he licked it!!! He did great at supper, cleaned the plate. I hope there are more days like today! Sandra

Thinking of you and Ralph fondly. Hugs to you, and scritchies to him, and may his time, however long, be filled with your love.

I'm so sorry to hear about Ralph. I just wanted to let you know that you made the right decision. He deserves to be spoiled, pampered, and loved and he'll let you know when it's time for him to go. I hope that the pred will allow him to remain with you and have good quality of life for a long time to come. Please take care. (((HUGS)))

That's really great. At this stage the benefit of prednisone definitely outweigh the long term risks. He can probably have just about any food he wants, too.

{{Hugs}} to you and Ralph.
