Darby's still only like six months old, tops. So nothing to worry about.
You were very nearly devoured by a giant demon snake. The words 'let that be a lesson' are a tad redundant at this juncture.

In reality she could be anywhere from around 8 to 12, so it's really hard to know/mentally plan.

I don't think I ever saw my cousins' cat Sunshine once she made it into her mid-20s, but I assume she resembled something out of Pet Semetary.

Koogie made to something like 18 or 19. He actually had fur worn off of some of his joints, and I had scarfs that weighed more than him. We called him the lich-cat. I miss the old bag of bones.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
This is making me sad, because I think my cat is going to die soon, too. I have thought that since I got her, but she seems skinnier and more meowy lately.

My ex's parents' cat lived to 22 and 24, and towards the end they were like decorative cat pillows. They woke up to have a few bites of food and some water and that was it. When the tree went up at Christmas, though, each of them would walk to the tree slowly and with great dignity and whack one ornament.

Ann, that's a ferret.
All sympathies to those that are nearing The Decision for their pets. A good vet can be very helpful in knowing when it's time.
I think it's our greatest failing with our cats. We're so aggressive in seeking treatment that we keep trying even when it's past time to let go.

The proprieties must be observed.

I agree.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I have not had to make The Decision, which in some ways has been easier but others, I suspect, harder.
Happier news: I forgot I had ordered The Food Lab (J. Kenji Lopez-alt) but it came today. I am excite, may need to cancel all plans for productivity that do not involve cooking.
