Snoop, so very sorry. I recently went through that experience last year when we lost two kitties within 6 months due to kidney disease. This week we learned that our doggie of 6/12 years has two torn ACL's requiring very expensive surgery. He's a 70 pound mixed breed that we just adore to pieces. Not sure if surgery will be an option for him. Therefore, at this point, we are not sure what his future holds. So I can sympathize with your heavy heart. Please know that our thoughts are with you.
