Gary, just make Mia as comfortable as possible. I know you will.

I thought the same thing about not adopting another cat after Persia
died. I was sure I didn't want another cat. Then the owner of a couple
of cats died and Buffy needed a home. A home where she wasn't being
bullied by the other resident cat, Frankie. The poor thing had to hide
all the time.

So I adopted Buffy. I'm sure glad I did. She's a real sweetheart.
She's also very happy being an only cat. (Some people think all cats
need companions. Nope, some cats really don't want a companion. Persia
was the same way. No other cats!)

Yes, there is always pain and loss when beloved pets die. We grieve.
But giving another one a chance for a happy home... I'm glad I rethought
that.
