Skeeter

of all the cats i have had and there have been many Skeeter is the most freaked out when put in a cage or carrier and hauled off for a ride in a truck

after the last cross country trip we arrived in Moab to stay and i promised him i wd never never again take him anywhere in a cage or car

so i wait patiently for him to die on his own / he sleeps long hours in his basket / he gets up once in a while to go outside where he lounges in his favorite places and then comes back in to drink water and return to his basket

he still drinks a lot of water

he has not had any food for a week

at first i offered all his favorites but, no, he has had enough good stuff in his life to eat / he is ready and he is serene and peaceful

if i were to take him up and maybe carry him in my arms (he never liked being picked up or cuddled) to the vet to be put to sleep it wd disrupt his natural flow / cause him anxiety and fear

soon he will sleep for good and all
