Hello, everyone.

Kate, the Mum here. As some of you know, our girl Tilly has not been well for about a month now. She is 17 years old and is suffering from the frailties of old age. Tonight, we took her to the vet, expecting that she would be going to the Bridge. After talking with the vet, we are going to have some bloodwork done to determine what is going on. We may still have difficult choices ahead of us, but for now we still have our gorgeous ginger girl. We should know the results soon and will certainly keep our friends in the blogosphere updated.

Over the past few days, we have received an outpouring of love and support from people we have never met. I think this is remarkable and I want to thank everyone. It's amazing what wonderful folks cat people are!

Toby, of course, is completely oblivious. He is well and looks more and more like a raccoon as the winter approaches. After his mat adventures of a while back, he loves being brushed and has (somewhat) replaced Jiggsy in his Dad's affections.

We send our good wishes and prayers to our friends Brandi and the Calico Girls and a special cuddle to those handsome Meezers, Sammy and Miles.

Thank you, friends,

Kate, Ken, Tilly and Toby
aka The Tower Hill Mob

Thank you, God. At least you can find out what's going on inside Tilly from these tests.
We all share this common bond of being owned by these wonderful creatures called Cats and their only failing is their lifespan is too short.
You all and Tilly will continue to be in our hearts and prayers.
Thanks for keeping us posted.

Oh we know how hard that is. Georgia is not well either. Momma says she thinks that sometimes it is harder on the humans than on us cats. She says us cats are very zen about our health.

Purrs to you all and you can come cuddle and purr with us if you need to be all together.
