Thaat Momo is one amazing kitty! And YOU are one amazing mom!

Thanks for updating and it's good to hear he's "still" Momo" and enjoying eatingm and batting and even groomingclap

I'm sure you've already thought of those "pee pad" Of course they have them at the pet store but you can also get the human ones at CVS, Walgreens, etc. They absorb the moisture and keepit away from Momo.

There's no greater love than that between ourselves and our ani al beings. But, man oh man, there's no greater hurt during times like these. We're all here withyou...you kmow that...Just wish we could have our animals with us forever sad Of course, as we age, I don't kow that they would be very adapt at following us arou d with towels and saran wrap! You've given us a great visual! Whole lotta' Momo love going on over there!

Sending you love and sending some more drawstrings for Momo,

Sally and Happy Hannah

Happy Hannah had a glorious additional bonus time of over one yr & two months after amp for osteo! She made me laugh everyday! Joined April's Angels after send off meal of steak, ice cream, M&Ms & deer poop!

Like Cheers. That's a first, I like it!

I agree, you and Momo are quite the team. Everything you are doing for him speaks volumes about your devotion and compassion during a very hard time. Your strength inspires all of us.

I've seen diapers for dogs and I don't know if they're available for cats but if so they could be a big help.

Lots of hugs for you guys.

I think this place is closer to Cheers than you might think. We don't need Ted Danson, and there are pleanty of adult beverages being consumed at the end (or in the middle) of the day around here big-grin

Megan, it takes a huge heart and a deep soul to walk this part of our companion's journey with such grace. Peace to you and your whole pack.

I've heard of home made belly band made out of fleece with a Poise pad fashioned into it somehow. ..Maybe even an ultra thin maxi pad?

You are unfortunately correct in that sometimes we are left out of the battle altogether and don't even get a chance to try to win. Helpless is a small word to describe our feelings then. As you learned with Sam, the shoulders here are many and strong. When Momo's time comes, come and lean. In the meantime, I wish Momo sunrays to nap in and a hearty appetite and the energy to ask repeatedly for chin scratches. I wish you strength and peace, Megan.
