Of my three cats, Tiger ended up as my last one.  Just over night between 3 AM and 6 AM local time, he passed away at home.  My plan was to hope for him to last long enough for veterinary assistance, which opens up at 8 PM.  However, he did not make it.  Instead, I had brought his dead body to the veterinary clinic for cremation. In the days and hours prior to his death, I had decisions to make.  They were all wrong in terms of keeping him alive.  Via Google, the search term "signs cat is dying" produced a list.  His condition fit all the descriptors.  He was dying.   The only thing I did not know was when.  From here on, everything is hindsight which is 20/20 vision.  In terms of happenstance, this was how it was meant to be.  He died on a carpeted floor all by himself at home, where he wanted to be. In light of everything, I express my satisfaction in having spent my life with all my cats for so many years.  Their memories will be cherished.   Here are all my cats: Maki , K
