Took the older cat into the vet for her checkup, and was told she's "perfect" (arthritis aside). Always scary with the little babies, because at some point (often before they get as old as this one), you get told something else. But they're family and provide such good companionship, and we love them even knowing we'll deal with bad news some day.

Very true. I had one who fought so ugly we never took him back to the vet after the age of two. Of course he made it to 19.

Oof -- I've been lucky that none of our cats have ever been terrible fighters about getting put in carriers (though they've all complained vocally). Our daughter's cat, though, fights like mad, and she actually has a vet that does house calls.
Our first cat also made it to 19, and that spoiled us expectation-wise for all the others.
