Star
Our Russian Blue cat
She is the most wonderful friend
Our beautiful loving companion
Unwell beyond words
Leukaemia or a lymphoma
And although some of the time
She doesn’t look or act sick
We won’t stop caring for her
Or believing her
We’ll nurse her until the very end
No doubts, no words defying the vet
With the option of a legal release
From all pain and suffering.
I read your poem about Star with my deaf half-Persian cat Abu sleeping on my lap. When Mum’s dementia gets me down, my two cats offer all the therapy I need. Mum’s care home recently welcomed a kitten, Tom, to their family. Cats are truly a source of love and comfort.

This reminded me of Vic – she often said to me that, if she had been a beloved pet of someone, she would have been “put down”.

Some might find the idea of being put down offensive, whereas if I had a legal choice when the time comes, I would choose to be ‘put down’… xx
