I got word today Chloe passed away peacefully, after 4 happy years as the queen of her house. She would've been just shy of 18 years old. From my friend who took her in and gave her a great life:
"It is with a heavy heart I say Chloe passed away this morning. She went peacefully and quickly I don't think she suffered at all. She stopped eating two days ago I tried tempting her with tuna, cheese and home canned chicken. She seemed ok until last night. I had her in my lap this morning when she died. At least we had the chance to make her last years comfortable. Patty doesn't know yet, she's not going to take this well. She was Chloe's favorite. May tomorrow bring a better day to us all."

Yep, even though it has an automatic shut off I unplug it before leaving for work. When I get home I crank the A.C. in the bedroom and plug the pad back in.
