| A very very Happy Birthday to Mister Junie - may he live 19 more
happy and healthy years! He sounds very remarkable!
A very hearty congratulations to you for taking such good care of
Junie. I'm sure your dedication and loyalty played an important
part in his longevity.
p.s. Yesterday, June 2nd, was Katenka Dolly's birthday and my
Mother's birthday - Mother's name is Dorothy (Dolly for short).
Mother is 79 and Katenka is 1 year.

| My Missy, who lived to be 20, had only 10% kidney function when
she was 18. I guess she made up for it by drinking gallons of water
every day. My sister's cat Rosco lived to be 19, even though he
had daily insulin shots from age 10. Your Junie sounds like a
venerable old guy. Best wishes to you both!

| Thank you all (humans and cats) for your wonderful birthday wishes
for Junie -- I'll tell him when I get home tonight. He will be very
happy -- he loves people and any attention he can get, even if it's
second-hand.

your mom and Dolly on their birthdays.

Truly amazing! I don't know much about the kidney failure except that
when all this started last year the vet said the insulin might keep
the kidney problem in check. So far, it has (and I'm keeping my
fingers crossed). In addition to having his canned food at each meal
watered down Junie drinks lots of water. Goes right through him, like
beer does to people. It makes getting a urine sample (to test for
sugar) very easy. (I won't gross you out by telling you he'll pee in
a cup without batting an eye.)
Wow! Your sister must be a very special person and Rosco must have
been a very special cat. It's nice to hear about people who go to
great lengths for their animals (and vice versa).

| RE: .7 BCSE::GOGOLIN Rosco and shots
Actually, I had made the same remark to her after she had been giving
him the shots for about a year. She said that it was really not
much of a chore. She only tested urine for the first few weeks.
After that she could tell how much to give him by how much he ate
and how he was acting. She also said that he got very use to the
idea and would just sit patiently every morning for his shot. Rosco
was her first "baby". I guess there's no such thing as "doing too
much" for a sweetie like him!

PS - Ann and I kid eachother about our luck with long lived cats.
We claim we keep them 20 years or so, whether we need to or
not.

| A sad follow-up to this note: Junie died yesterday. He was just about
19 1/2.
Junie had been doing pretty well until a couple of weeks ago when he
started getting fussy about eating. He was eating less and less and
slowly lost weight. Two days ago he stopped eating altogher. It was a
hard thing to do, but I called the vet to come to the house and put him
to sleep.
Right up until the end he still asked for attention, bumped his head on
me to be petted, curled up in my lap when I sat on the couch. He even
continued to "Me-ah!" (translation: bless you!) when I sneezed. It seemed
his spirit was willing to go on but his body couldn't make it.
Junie had a long and good life; I really can't complain. He was such a
good cat, extremely affectionate, very social towards people and my other
cats, and without a mean bone in his body. He will be missed greatly.

| And mine. The one nice thing was that your vet made a house call;
it's so much better when your little one passes on in familiar surroundings.
I believe there's a special place where all kitties go; someday,
after I pass on, I hope to go there to see those I shared my life
with; and I hope you will meet your little one, too.
