Boo the Orange Tabby (1993-2010) went to hunt with LongCat in the ForEverGlade today.

 

He had been suffering from a prolonged decline in his health and sudden onset kidney failure.

 

Boo was preceded in death by his mate of 9 years Sissy the Calico.

 

He was a long time member of St. Fluffy of the Sacred Hairball Cat-o-lick Church.

 

He will be greatly missed by both his human and cat companions as a sweet old cat who never growled at anyone but dogs.

Sorry to hear about your sad loss. He looked like a beautiful cat. Our are like children to us so I know how you must be feeling.

Sorry to hear Babe... I know we consider out pets as our hairy children. Indeed he was a beautiful cat.

[Tomas]

So very sorry.

Someone on another board posted the following when I mentioned that I had lost my cat.

 

Rainbow Bridge

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

 

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.

 

There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together.

 

There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

 

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.

 

The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

 

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

 

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

 

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

I'm so very sorry James.

[nightsky]

I'm sorry for your loss. Boo sounds like he was a terrific companion who will be greatly missed.

[Hoskins]

So sorry to hear this, James.

[Dargon]

I'm sorry to hear of your loss James. I hope you find solace in all of your fond memories of Boo. I never had pets but I know my bf misses them a lot when they pass away.

 

And thank you Tomas, for sharing such a beautiful text. It made my eyes water.

[Bandage]

I'm sorry for your loss, James...

[JamesSavik]

I'm going to miss Boo reading over my shoulder.

 

His health has obviously been declining over the last year so it didn't come as a complete shock.

 

Boo's understudy Rambo will be taking over the duties of Alpha cat.

 

 

Rambo is scary smart and a little psycho. We should get along just fine.

[Krista]

Aww. Sorry about your loss James.

 

Side note.. Boo has pretty eyes.

[Arpeggio]

 

I shall hug my own Boo if he doesn't bite me. I'm sorry you lost your's.
