sad cat vet story, not mine
as I was coming in, another human was bringing in a cat in a wonderful wheeled carriage kitty carrier, and I WANT ONE OF THOSE. the kitty was a huge long-haired pixie-bob--I thought he was a Maine coon at first. unfortunately, he was very lethargic, and his human said he probably wouldn't be going home. the human was much calmer about it than I would have been in their place, but obviously deeply sad.

as I was leaving with Pooka, I saw the wheeled carriage being brought out, with no pixie-bob. and now I'm tearing up thinking about it. but if he went in love, with care, in peace and comfort... that's really all any of us can ask, until/unless we figure out some kind of immortality.
okay actually crying now
