Sad news today.

Sorry to hear this Buddha, my condolances to you and your wife. At my age, I have lost a few pets through the years due to natural causes and some through "man made" causes. I have never forgotten any of them. Again, I feel your pain, but please realize that your cat is not suffering any longer.
 
Hey, Buddha. Sorry to hear about your loss.

We had our 18 year old Hymalayian put to sleep just three weeks ago. I was hoping she would live long enough until after I retired. Her heart was willing, but the body was not. She was my birthday gift from my wife after our kids left home, so losing her has hit me really hard. We're still not over losing her.

Hi all,
Just over 3 weeks ago I posted that 2 of our cats had been poisoned with anti-freeze.Poppy died in 3 days,But Angelus seemed to be OK if just a little ill from the side effects.He was treated by the vets for the poisoning and seemed to respond well to this.Well over the pasted couple of days he deteriorated quickly.We had to have him put to sleep this morning.His kidneys went into complete failure.
May the Goddess bless his little soul and let him be reborn again into a happier life.
We loved him dearly.My wife is quite distraught over his death as he was our favorite cat.

So sorry to hear of Angelus' passing, Buddha....it does hurt to lose a dear friend.

But, if the old adage about cats having 9 lives is true...they'll find their way back to you. Raztus, our new cat, has all of the same personality traits as did our beloved Whitey who died last year.

The family jokes that when Whitey got to heaven, he wouldn't leave St. Peter alone to try and get back to us, and so pestered him, that St. Peter said, "Will someone please send this cat back so I can have some peace and quiet??"

And, Raztus found his way to us,albeit, Whitey working on life #2..
 
Hi all,
Thanks for the support.It is much appreciated by my Wife and I.
6297J ours have not been the only cats in the area to have been poisoned.The sister of a friend of ours 2 villages along the coast lost all 6 of her cats to this poisoner in a week.There have been about a dozen separate incidents over the last couple of months.

And I take it no one has any idea of the perpetrator?

We had a note put through our door today about yet another lost/missing cat in the neighbourhood. Seems to me there have been quite a few go missing from around here lately, hopefully being stolen to order rather than anything more sinister - the posters tacked up onto trees and lamp posts all show rather expensive looking purebreds rather than moggies.

I hope they catch the fiend responsible sooner rather than later and string them up.
