Somewhat related, there is a vaccine for cats in the works meant to prevent feline chronic kidney disease. If successful it could massively increase the lifespan of domestic cats.
I dunno accepting death as an inevitability seems important since since we otherwise struggle hard to ignore it in western culture and by extension can create a lot of suffering.

That killed my childhood cat. Would be awesome for future kids to not experience what I did.
Kind of seems like losing a pet is an important part of growing up tbh.
Accepting death is an important part of growing up, but no animal deserves to die just to be a goddamn teachable moment
Kind of doesn’t.

A pet doesn’t need to die for that. If you look around… Death is everywhere!

Wanna bet what capitalism is going to say about that?
This makes me very happy, thank you for sharing!
That would be amazing. They can already live so long. To think, you might be able to have a cat with you for most of your adult life.
