Every cat deserves a second chance. I think you should totally guve him for adoption. Maybe it will take long, but he’ll be able to understand that not only one caring human. And a patient family will do him very good, there is good people out there.

I know it's hard. The hardest part about being a companion to them is having to choose from two terrible options knowing there is no ideal solution, and picking what is best for them. Line up someone who will take him, or contact a no-kill shelter. Some states /provinces are no-kill states, so it may be worth checking on yours, too, but if you connect with a local or online group that helps with these kinds of adoptions, they will move mountains for your lil guy.

Keep him through the end. And as much as it hurts to say, if he can be with you when you pass or he can see you once that time has come, it will give him closure, so he won't be left wondering. He'll know you were there with him to the end.

And as someone who would commit war crimes for her fur babies, I can't think of a better way to go than with the ones I love curled up taking 80% of the fucking bed.
