Condolences for your loss. My cat Phillip died in March at the age of 15 and I know how hard the loss must be. His littermate also was very depressed and lost after his death but is doing better now. I hope Ernie gets better in time. Does Ernie have any other cats to keep him company?
Ernie has two lady friends here. They are loving on him nonstop the past couple of days. Amazing he misses Mr. Poopers.
