Down but not out
Robyn gets more and more decrepit but he gets arounda nd still eats for three
Did he make it out of the house
ReplyDeleteI'm glad he eats well. That's about the only pleasure old people (I mean: old cats) can really enjoy.
ReplyDeleteBless him! While he can eat well he can enjoy life.
ReplyDeleteAh he doesn't go much further than his food bowl these days Beak
ReplyDeleteAh that he does Claude!
Indeed Dragonstar.Once he stops eating we will know it is the end.
Awww! Bless :-)
ReplyDeleteHe's still a gentle old chap
ReplyDeleteFood is life, so as long as he has an appetite, no matter what he looks like, he is doing fine.
ReplyDeleteAs you note, when the appetite goes, the will goes with it.
My senior cat doesn't go far, but he responds instantly to the opening of a can.
Oh God does he respond to the food pouches opening! While he does that we will know he's okay
