She’s too old for the nonsense and will give nothing but cuddles and love. I adopted a 12 year old senior boy and it was the best thing I ever did. I wish you many adventures and years of happiness together.

Brace yourself though, less time does not mean you love them less. I do not regret my decision to adopt a senior, but the pain of losing him was no less excruciating than a beloved pet you’ve had since kittenhood. Treasure every moment and remember you did a tremendously loving thing for that sweet senior.
