Back from the Vet

We are back from the Vet.

Jack's kidneys are in failure so there are a lot of toxins in his blood. It is related to old age and nothing can be done about it. I was given the option of taking him to the Animal Hospital for blood tests and to be put on a drip. They suggested a prescription diet for cats in kidney failure, but most cats don't like it.

So I've brought him home and am going to spoil him rotten. He can have as much roast chicken and red salmon as he can eat and whatever else he wants. I want him in his own home, around his familiar things and his friends. When he starts suffering, I will take him back to the Vet for the last time. We only have a few more weeks and they are to be the happiest possible.
