Watching my 18-year-old #cat age is a lesson in gentleness. This morning he ate, walked away, came back, and asked to be fed again - his food still there. I picked it up, set it down, and suddenly it made sense to him again. He's still there, just navigating the world a little differently now. If you've loved an old animal, I'd love to hear your stories. #caturday #CatsOfMastodon
