We had one of our cats, Ricochet (Ricki) into the vet on saturday
morning for a check up since she's going on 18 years of age now.
Yes, I said 18.

I just got a call back from the vet with her test results and he was
offering all kinds of kuddos to DH and I.  He said he has never seen a
cat that old that was in that good of physical shape.  Blood work was
perfect in every area.  (She's getting a little arthretic, but
hey.....that's understandable)

YAY!  Looks like Ricki will be around for a long time still.  She was
a throw away, and we found her when she was about 6 weeks old.

Our Maggie May is sixteen and in great shape. She recommends sleeping
a great deal and not having kittens after you are ten. I have followed
her advice about sleeping a great deal and not having kittens and it
has worked for me.

Oh I hear you.  I don't plan on having any more "kittens" either.  Not
that I could.....the ol' biological clock is winding down pretty
swiftly now.

That's wonderful news! Our oldest (Xoxo) went in to TED last month and
he got a clean bill of health too.

I can only hope our crew makes it to 18 as healthy as Ricki! :)

Cheers.

That's awesome Victor.  When you get that kind of news back from the
vet doesn't it just make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside?
