     A pet is like one of the family, and you hate to have to put them   
   down. But, all of us who have been pet owners have had to do that at one   
   time or another. I cried like a baby for 15 minutes when my late wife   
   and I had our dachshund put down. But, at 11 years old, he had become   
   diabetic, resistant to the insulin, and had gone blind from glaucoma and   
   cataracts. But, he had a working nose, and a full set of teeth up until   
   he died.   
      
   JS>Been in heat the last week. That poor cat sounds like she is dying.   
      
     That's because she knows there are males outside to "play with".    
      
     After my Mom had our cat spayed, it gave us the stinkeye..."you took   
   away my baby maker!!". :P   
      
     She had to be put down several years ago as well.
