I'm envious.....had to put mine down a couple years ago. I miss her.

Speaking of main Coon's....my son inherited one from a couple who owned a garage and had it to catch mice etc. Closed the garage and asked my son if he wanted her as they were moving to Florida. HE always admired it.

At any rate...the cat was huge and muscular having lived on a meat diet from all the critters it caught. Took only a few days before he fit right in the family. Glad you're enjoying your cat.....I have yet to get another but might one day in the future. Having put two cats down already not sure I want to go through that again.

We have had many cats and three dogs so have had to put some down over the years. It is not fun but they were all rescues and we gave them a great home for all of their years and so many rescue animals never get a good home and are euthanized.

We decided that it may hurt us to have to see them go but we were able to make their lives totally comfortable, their bellies full, many toys, a warm lap and an endless supply of petting. They get comfort and give us comfort and great companionship as well as some great laughs as they play.

I know they all will be waiting for us in the end and the love and kindness we show them is something that too many pets never get. Please think of bringing in another furball into your heart and home. They will pass on someday but, after the grief, you can smile and think about all the great times and frindship and know you did right by them.
