forever my golden boy

I've been in tears for the better part of two days now.

It became evident on Sunday that it was time for Floydd and I to say our goodbyes.

Over the past week he took a turn for the worse, and I knew the handwriting was on the wall.

Yesterday morning I let him go.

 

I've found that when you bring a cat into your life, they are always the ones to dictate the way the relationship will go between the two of you..

I've always been able to win their affection and trust, but cats make up their own minds about how much of themselves they're going to share with you.

Kind of like people.

Every one of them will be sweet and affectionate in their own way, but some will choose to remain aloof and solitary, only seeking food and an occasional show of affection

But there have been a handful of individuals through the years that have chosen to get intricately involved in everything your doing.

Floydd was that cat.

No matter what you were doing, Floydd wanted to be a part of it.

And he loved to hang out with all his humans.

He was Larry's biggest on site supervisor for all projects, and Chloe's best buddy from the time she was a baby.

Always calm and highly adaptable, nothing much rattled Floydd.

He had a wonderful curiosity that made him a true joy to be with.

I can't even find the words to say how much I'm going to miss him.

 

Now he's on the other side of the Rainbow bridge and running with his buddy Leo.

R. I. P. my dear little boy.
