Mickey's alive!Mickey, also from next door, has gone away to die. Probably under Lorraine's house across the street. He is over 14 years old, with some serious health problems - thyroid and kidneys. Hasn't been eating for the last couple of days, and we haven't seen him for several days. He usually sleeps in our garage during the day, as he doesn't like Chai. We have always left the back garage door open for him.
His family is understandably upset, but also sanguine about the fact that the average lifespan of a domestic cat is around 13 y.o.
Struggling, but alive, back home and eating.
