Twenty years is a long time to spend with someone, but it’s still not enough. I keep thinking that I should have spent our time together more wisely, that I should have payed more attention when I had the chance. I never thought the day would come when we’d have to say goodbye.
You were always tough, a true 7-pound heavyweight among cats, and I’m sorry that, despite everything, I couldn’t help you win this last battle. Things will never be quite the same, and there’s a profound sense of emptiness in your absence.
Everywhere I look, I know you’ve been here. Your fur will infiltrate my laundry forever.
Have a good rest, Hon.
With love forever,
