Unfortunately, this isn't my first rodeo. I lost one of my favorites about a year ago (Mama Cat) and I've had to take a couple other of our kitties in during years past. Rocky the Cat died in his sleep in his cat bed. I was OK with that. Baxter has been very frail for about a year. He lasted a lot longer than I thought he would. He didn't get cheated. He had a great life, so I'm at peace with it.
