Moving with two cats; one is terminally ill. Advice?
A family member has two beautiful black cats. They are both males, not siblings but very very bonded and devoted to each other. One of them, the younger, had a leg removed two years ago because of cancer. He did well, but now it appears that he may have something going on again, and will probably need to be put down.
The family is moving in June, to a new neighborhood. The question: Would it be better for the well cat if they put the kitty down prior to the move, or after the move?
Will the well cat be confused if kitty isn't at the new house, and continually try to find his way back to the old house to search? My opinion is that it's better to move kitty with the family, and then deal with the euthanasia a couple of weeks later.
Sad. This is a darling, very sweet cat.

I believe if the sick cat moves with the well cat the stress of a different environment would be less for the well cat, even after the sick cat dies, if they both are together...my two cats died in my arms, the daughter first, then the mother, both within a month...both were over 13 years old...
Edit to say, I cried for days over both of their deaths..
I think the grieving process for the well kitty would be somewhat easier.
Poor babies.
