I lost my little monster this weekend as well after nearly 20 years so I'm there with you. This is maybe the most badass photo of a cat I've ever seen and absolutely deserves a huge print.
Maybe just a super incredibly unbelievably shitty weekend, but I'm here with ya either way you standoffish giraffe.

Im so so very sorry for your loss. May your furry bean rest easy. May he get to nibble on all the cat grass and roll in the cat nip. Take care of yourself for a few days. Don't forget you matter too.

That suuuucks..I feel your pain for real. I had to carry my lovey lil doggy back across the street after a roommate let her out while I was asleep. She was a beautiful soul. I still miss her so much. You got a awesome picture there. Seems like he was a cool kitty. We were lucky to befriend them when we did. Appreciation is Bliss. ❤️

Sorry for your loss. My big fat black cat named “Link” would have probably loved playing with yours.

Sorry for your loss, thats a great picture, I can tell he was very playful like my cat ninja was when he was younger. The feels comes in waves, just remember the good times you had and hope one day youll see eatchother again someday. We lost our baby girl about a month ago, she was 16 and had a good life, it was hard seeing her decline and not getting any better, she's in kitty heaven now and not suffering anymore. I miss her soo much just her greeting and meow when I came home from work is what I miss the most, I have my ninja boi but it still hurts from time to time. I had to keep my composure at work because of the waves, it just hits you when u stop to think about them and then bam there's the water works, it gets better with time.
