I jumped on him.
I been a bit too tetchy lately.

So very sorry about your loss, jeremiah. I call it fur withdrawal. One old-fashioned remedy is to cover yourself with new kitten fur or older rescue cat fur. Won’t take the place of a beloved, but it takes your mind off the loss. And gives a furball a loving home.
