I have a spoiled rotten FAT cat!! My Reba (dog) passed away about 5 years ago at age 12. The vet said that she was really old because Rotts usually only live to be about 8 to 10 years max. She was well loved and cared for from birth. We had her Mom and she was the runt of a litter of 15 pups!! Survived parvo at 4 months old. I sometimes want another puppy but DH won't agree to it. crafty_linda_b
