So sorry for your loss. He looks such a handsome boy. The love clearly flowed in both directions.

Thanks. We gave him ten good years. He was found alone in the woods, only 10 weeks old. He was so thin and had Giardia. We got him cured but he needed a special diet his entire life, was often at the vet, which couldn't do anything really. In the end, we needed to get him euthenazied. My first cat, first pet and I didn't imagine I would care so much for a little creature.

I’m so sorry for your loss. He looks incredibly well loved and happy in every photo.

He was the kind of cat that would sleep on your chest, he could play fetch, and he would come to the door when I was on my way out, and demanded to either be picked up or get me down on a knee (even though there were others at home) so he could do this weird and very cute thing where we kind of chewed on my nose while purring insanely.
