Thanks mlee, great compliment. I think he knows Tiberius was the name of an Emperor... and will be the name of a Starship Captain too.
Ra was outstanding, and I'm sure he had a great friend in you. Your new fella is gorgeous too, wildpaws. Love that name even more now that I know where it comes from. It's too bad we can't keep our friends with us forever. Tiber-kittums is an F3.
It's very helpful to know someone that had a kitty on beta blockers that lived to a good old age. My Tiger got diabetes when he was 13 and I gave him two shots a day of insulin. He made it to 20 years and a month before his kidneys gave out. He did really well up until the last couple of months too. My vet said a 20 year old diabetic is a certified miracle, but the insulin and some lactated ringers under the skin twice a week for the last couple of years kept the kidneys flushed and working as long as possible.
Every moment of care given to my friend was well spent. So too will be the money for the kitty cardiologist. If money can't buy love, I guess I'll have to rent it.
I'm feeling better about dealing with the situation. I'll let Yall know how things turn out.
