You should take him to a good Vet, who can tell you in an Xray. I went through that, it was fast so you do not want to waste time. My last night with Gray he couldnt sleep & I gave him CDB oil, that helped. You Vet will know if he is in pain & can give you pain medicine for him. When I didnt have any money, my 1st cat got sick & I carried him in a woven laundry basket to a Vet a few blocks away, I always saw a lot of Mercedes' s parked at. I told him the truth, I didnt have any money. They covered the cost & later put him to sleep (actually sleep first) too.

This made me cry so hard . Many Morals to this story -- if single and with a cat or dog - don't let anybody separate you . Your a package deal . If they don't like your pet then they are not the person for you . No matter how 'hot' or handsome they look .. Pets are family too . Second - many pets are left behind in shelters because the owner doesn't want to take the big step of responsibility of caring for them until the end . Again- pets are family . And if you see a lonely person , that is dying , try to bring a little joy to them that day . Bring flowers , sit and talk to them . The person with a deadly disease is scared and feels very alone - as do animals . Reach out a caring hand like Michael . RIP sweet Rico . 😢❤️

This video shows that even if you have toxic and abusive family that don't care about you, you can find healthy and beautiful people in your life that love and care about you like they never will - you need to be at peace with leaving those abusive people behind and embrace those who bring you joy and not heartache. Genuine, true friendship from healthy people is what matters most in life - leave toxicity behind you and never look back. It's not you, it's them. Definitely crying by the end of this.

I checked this book kzread.infoUgkxSw1k29V8f0aNwyGI6qRGYJc3E4Y4Eoxy out at the library - read it cover to cover - and then decided to purchase it, so i can refer to it as needed. This provides additional ways to train in addition to the two obedience classes my sicx month old belgian malinois has already attended. Despite having dogs my whole life, i have been voraiciously reading dog training and psychology books lately given my little "maligator" has a mind of her own (extremely smart but obstinate) , and this one ranks among the best.

That was heartbreaking. I just lost my 23 yr old cat in April, I knew I shouldn't have watched this. Family is who you love and those who love you. And a person that gets rid of an animal for a partner in a relationship that's a horrible person. I could never give up my animals that I love for someone. If you get a pet, you commit for life. Pets are not returnable for any reason and you can't give them away when you get tired of them. I was grateful for every minute I had with my 23 yr old cat but I still wish for more time.

Very moving an emotional film - hugs to any 4 legged & 2 legged patients battling cancer 😍

Such a beautiful story, and so well told. Prince Michael is such a dear little soul. Cats know when someone is sick, even before humans do. And they want to comfort them. My father died of mesothelioma, the lung cancer caused by asbestos. in 1959-60, he worked at Johns Manville for 9 months. A tiny bit of asbestos fibres got into his lung, and hid there for 60 years, like a time-bomb, before it went off. His final year involved many visits from friends, including some he hadn't seen in years. He also recorded many of his memories on a digital recorder. Here in Canada, we have legalized, but tightly regulated, medically assisted death. As the sunset streamed through the window, Dad was in his own bed at home, surrounded by his lifelong best friend (a retired doctor), us, and the black cat who'd chosen Dad as his favourite human, before anyone knew Dad was sick. Dad hadn't wanted a cat, but the cat chose Mom when they visited a farm a few years earlier, and the owner said the cat was a stray who'd be going to the pound, because it kept picking fights with the house cats there. As Dad got sicker and weaker, the cat spent more and more time with him. At night, it would snuggle up with him, and purr. At the day and time Dad had chosen, the special doctor gave Dad the three injections. In less than a minute, he drifted off to sleep forever. And the house was enveloped in the most incredible feeling of peace, that we could physically feel. The cat stayed with him on the bed, and kept an overnight vigil there, even after the undertakers took Dad away.
