Re: Things that make you sad.
We've got a cat living in our yard at work who has somehow managed to keep 4 kittens alive under one of our shipping containers we store extrusion in. I reckon the kittens are about 4 weeks old and given the summer we've had I think Mum has done an excellent job keeping them going, they're all bright eyed and bushy tailed and look pretty healthy. What makes me sad is every cat rescue place I've rung is either at or beyond capacity and I'm struggling to find anyone who can help and when I say help it's not me who needs the help, it's the 4 kittens.
If you want to go quickly, go alone.
If you want to go far, go together.

Jase, I'm sorry to hear that mate. It's an insidious disease, I hope she's at peace and her loved ones are filled with memories of love and laughter with her in better times.

Thanks for your thoughts LM, Booney and Brod...
To be honest, feeling reasonable, mum is not suffering anymore and this allows dad to breathe again.
