RIP Old Friend
This grand old gentle cat passed away this morning and my heart is breaking. We brought him home from the animal shelter in 2005 when my daughter was in Kindergarten. She will be a senior in high school in the fall. He was a majestic cat, in his youth, always on the hunt. He reminded me so much of a tiger. He brought home many "presents" for us. On one of his hunting trips about 5 years ago, he came home and it was obvious he had been in a fight. Later we found out he had contracted FIV (Feline Aids). We let him live out his life as long as we could, but he was in the beginning stages of kidney failure and we let him cross the rainbow bridge this morning. We spent the last few days holding him and letting him know how much he was loved. RIP old friend. You will be missed.
