Leaving my cat Goose when I move to Mexico is one of the hardest things I'm dealing with. I've thought it through so many times, and I'm just sure it
would be a death sentence for the little scaredy cat. She's not a toughie. But, seeing my departure date approach, my sense of loss is almost like
her death thinking of living without her. She gets to stay where she's always lived and she's young, she'll have to make a new best friend.
I'm sorry for your loss. My emotions are so raw around all this that Felix's passing touched me deeply.

So sorry to hear the news. I had my Honky Cat for 23 years and know how it feels. You give em a good life, take care of them...it is a terrible loss
but good karma awaits for those who take care of their animals.

So sorry for your loss! We still miss our dog Shelby. I will pick up her collar and hug it and think of her now and then. She will always be with
us that way!

Thanks to everyone for your kind thoughts. It means a lot to me. Felix will be missed. I don't know how we are going to get Christmas dinner cooked
without him plopped right in the middle of the kitchen floor, like he always did.

Cats are weird creatures. A lot smarter than people give 'em credit for being. If they'd only leave the birds and other small critters alone The only
cat I ever had would jump into the air to catch bats and dragon flies. Coyotes killed it.

So sorry about your loss. Those cats really can steal your heart. I lost my "little man' Rusty almost two years ago and I still miss him. He lived to
be 16 1/2. LIke Felix he became more loving and affectionate as he got older...at least with us. With others he was ornery! The vet records said, "Has
an attitude" at the top of his files!! LOL! Loved that guy! Wish you well.
Whenever I hear that rainy, chill wind blow. I think it may be time to head for Mexico. Tengo que obedecer mi corazon!

What seems to help a little is knowing just how good the pet had it, when in your care. Mascotas that are spoiled, content, and healthy know it and
really they can't ask more than that. An animal who lives the last few years of their life in agony is being mistreated. Your puddy tat had it made.
