Haven’t broke the news yet that they’ll never ride in it

Of course they will! When it's not your latest anymore.

They wouldn't wait for nothing.

I would love to belt them in to the rear buckets and show them what the car can do! They love spirited driving

Here is my crew ... difficult to get them all at one time.

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess the cat is the boss.

She certainly is. Found her outside when she was a kitten. I am not a cat person but had to give her a home.

Same at my house and we don't have any other pets. Yes, they definitely boss people too.

This guy is currently on a plane in from the Bahamas. Picking him up in just over 2 hours.

Epic face-off.

Lucky for your dog the fence keeps the beast out.

Of course the beastie could hop that fence if he wanted to.

Oh yeah, that's a street-smart ferrule cat that has been roaming the neighborhood for a couple years. It's a certified feline bad-ass that taunts the neighborhood coyotes for fun and would have shredded our dog to bits if that fence wasn't there.

It does not look feral. It seems to be in a perfect condition.

At least it should be living a comfortable life: coyotes must be easy to prey, plentiful and tasty.

What is the story behind the Bahamas? A breeder? A cute stray during a visit?

Visited Bahamas in May and fell in love with the strays down there. Found an adoption agency that takes litters of puppies from strays and finds homes in US and Canada. Potcake Puppy Palace if anyone is curious

Lazy day at home today with Finn all curled up on the couch. Wife said he looks like a pet fox

DETRoadster · 11-23-2021, 06:03 PM

Hey Pet lovers, can we have a serious convo here? I'm talking about that thing we never want to think about; saying good-bye.

Bella has been my sidekick and partner in crime for 16 amazing years. She has degenerative disc disease, Cushing's disease, cataracts, is losing her hearing, and spent 5 days in the ER vet recently with her 2nd round of pneumonia in 6 months. On the positive side she doesnt seem to be in pain, she flat out runs down the hall for meal time, enjoys chasing (slowly) the random squirrel, can still dig a massive hole in the sand at the beach, loves car rides, belly rubs, and chasing sticks. She generally still seems to be enjoying life at an admittedly slower pace.

I just shot off a $7,000 credit card payment for her last ER stay, knowing she's got a CT scan scheduled for Monday to try to get to the bottom of the reoccurring pneumonia. Another $2,500. I'm not infinitely wealthy but at the same time cant see myself deciding her time is up just because it's expensive. I always told myself the deciding factor was going to be her quality of life, not mine. So if she's pain free and still enjoying the things she's always enjoyed well then I'll do my part and keep her going.

How do you all approach balancing end of life decisions like this?
