I just put my kitty, Goomba to sleep this weekend. Saturday, the 21st. She was about 16 years old. She couldn't breathe well anymore. There was a big tumor on her side as well as arthritis which was making it hard for her to walk. She wasn't keeping her food down either. The poor girl was still mobile and still affectionate but obviously suffering. I put her in a box and drove to the vet and I had her put to sleep. I found a nice place next to a big field that looks over some nice Pennsylvania hills, looking west towards the sunset. I dug a hole and I put her in. I found a few rocks and some bricks to mark her patch. I'm going to go there often. Its the same place that I go to when I want to shoot my guns. Way far out in the country. A good place I think. I'm really messed up in the head still. I'm sad and I've been crying a lot. She was my friend for about 1/3 of my life. If your friend is in pain you have to make the choice. It sucks and its horrible and I'll never know if I did the right thing. I think I did so I'm going to go with that. Here's a picture of her. I'm sorry.

Thanks for the kind words guys. It gets easier every day. I still miss her and think about her all the time. I've still got this goofy rear end thing to keep me company. Her name is Silly and she's pretty good. She's doing a good job of keeping us all company. I think she misses the Goomba too.
