Yes, Playboy bunnies are universal.

I am an absolute cat lover, so I can imagine how you must be feeling. I work at home as a translator, which can be a lonely job, and I find it great to have some furry company around, even though they lie on my dictionaries and lose their fur in my keyboard. Every once in a while I tell my two cats: You mustn’t ever die. I hope they listen…

Every week I brace myself for something similar. Beauregard’s 16 now, and still lives pretty hard. (It’s been a week for vet drama. no blood. just weight loss and a sprain {?!}) I don’t know what I’ll do when he goes.
Sorry, that’s the Leonine way of offering sympathy, relating it to my own immediate experience. What I mean to offer is sympathy, not empathy.

Oliver sounds like he was a great cat. Kisses for you and the family.

our tess is almost 11 and i dread the day when we say goodbye to her. but i wouldn’t have given up a single moment of her company.

take care

Poor kitty.

I think that the shorter lives of pets are to get us used to departures before it’s relatives and friends. People without pets cannot comprehend the relationship of unqualified acceptance that pets give.

You were lucky to have had him for 10 years. I’ve never had a pet for that long. There’s always some dread disease or accident that takes them from me, and I tell myself I’ll not have another. Yet I do. I imagine you will as well..
*hugs*

You don’t even have to be a “pet person”. Sorry for your loss, Mig, I’m sure you’ll remember him well.
