For the MacBook Pro line Mid 2009, OS X El Capitan 10.11 is the maximum OS it supports.

macOS Sierra 10.12 requires model Mid 2010 or later for the MacBook Pro line.

macOS High Sierra 10.13 requires model Mid 2010 or later for the MacBook Pro line.

macOS Mojave 10.14 requires model Mid 2012 or later for the MacBook Pro line.

macOS Catalina 10.15 requires model Mid 2012 or later for the MacBook Pro line.

Apple should definitely think about users like me who maintain their devices more than 10 years with proper working condition.

Unfortunately my Macbook Pro Mid 2009 is working great, can't digest to go for new mac just b'coz of new OS X. Apple should definitely think about users like me who maintain their devices more than 10 years with proper working condition.

Thanks.
