Just got back from putting down my cat, Emma. She was 18 and had a tumor that had grown near her lungs and stomach. Ate about two cans of food over the last two weeks, lost 5 pounds and then started having a hard time breathing. I remember my wife and son bringing her home, I was against getting another cat but she was my bud, she would jump up on my lap everytime I sat down. She was a good kitty.
