conv: My cat got cancer and had to be put to sleep. I once had a fluffy cat named Leo_comma_ but he got lymphoma and I had to have him put to sleep. Oh_comma_ I am so sorry. It has to be the most difficult thing to have to do. I had to do that with my gorgeous lab - I still miss him! I'm sorry to hear about your lab as well. They are very sweet dogs. Indeed they are. And so are many cats - the farm I used to live on has a ginger tom. He's quite the character and used to visit me regularly! I love ginger cats! Leo was a ginger_comma_ and I have one right now named Chunk. This fella is called Oliver. He's a big old softie who is ace at catching gophers. He would bring half eaten ones to my door! Yikes! That doesn't sound pleasant_comma_ but I know they do that to try to show you they like you. They think you appreciate the gifts. Oh_comma_ I shouldn't be ungrateful_comma_ lol! At least he kills them before delivering them. A friends cat used to deliver live mice into the bathtub!
