My wonderful first cat Marius died after 16 years with me.
I love you, Mar, and I miss you so much.
You are in heaven where there are no needles and no vets, only love and Cosette to welcome you.
Some day I'll join you both.

(My foster litter with ringworm. The Humane Society policy euthanizes all ring worm cases)

The love of my life.
I can't think of you to this day without crying for missing you.

 

(Had metastaic adeno carcinoma of the nasal cavity that went though the cribiform plate and metastized into the lungs.
However, this was discovered at autopsy and is not how she died.
She had seizure-like activity and blood in the lungs.
We still don't know why she died as she did.)
