Kid is special like this, which is why victors post made me cry. Kid is
still with me, I'm so lucky, but no one knows what is wrong with her. So
I
don't know how long I'll be lucky enough to have her.

That's why I spoil her rotten, because I have to treat every day like I
might not have many more.

And she's only 2.

I love you Kid. You're the best cat I'll ever have. I'll love you so
hard
as long as I have you with me here, and then I'll love you that hard
when
you're not. tear

I know what you mean. Though I love Nikki to bits, for me, Frank is that
special cat. Though he is in quite good health, despite the
hyperthyroidism,
he is getting on in years, and I worry at each cough and sneeze. I can't
imagine living without him. It must be so much worse with a cat like Kid,
with whom no-one knows what's wrong, and you can only hope that she will
be
there for a long long time. {{{Jen}}}

Thanks so much Marina. Your friendship and care has always meant so much to
me. I can completely emphasize with that worry at everything: that's exactly
what its like! That's exactly it! Every little change in anything is
throwing me for a loop. Even though being rational ("moving to a real dry
climate from humidity probably explains why she's drinking a bit more water
now") doesn't work. I think it's pretty bad for all of us. Its like that
saying (whatever it is) about the craziness of loving something we know
lives so much shorter than a human.

Hugs,
Jen.
