So, umm, I've had my cat Delilah for over 8 years now. The first time I ever saw her (she was only a day old) I absolutely fell in love with her. She and I have always had a very strong connection with each other... she would sleep only in my bed and she has always followed me around the house (as opposed to the other people in the house).
She's still alive, but she won't stop going to the bathroom around the house. She has emotional problems and this is her way of dealing with it. My parents have tried lots of things to solve the problem, but none have worked well. Now that my dad is retiring early and he still has to help me pay through college, they can't afford to pay for her medication any longer. My mom is also freaking out cuz she doesn't want her rugs to be ruined. I've thought about trying to find a home for her, but I know she'd be miserable any place else. She hates being away from me and my family, and it would KILL me to have her be miserable with new pet owners. So, it looks likely that my parents are going to euthanize her.
The worst part of it all is the uncertainty, since my parents haven't settled on a decision.
I really needed people who would understand though...
