My much loved buddy, garage helper and outdoor enthusiast Smokey has died. He's been losing weight and not having a lot of energy for awhile but we just chalked it up to him getting older (he was 16). His weight got so low that we took him to the vet to be checked out and it turned out he had advanced cancer. We brought him home and hoped for the best, but over the last few days things went downhill rapidly. He stopped eating and rarely moved. He died in his kitty house last night shortly after midnight.
Some of you will remember him giving me dirty looks for not having a lawn, he finally got a lawn and landscaping he really enjoyed. One of his favorite pass times was to sit out on the front porch and watch the world go by or hide in the plants and flowers in the backyard.
I couldn't have asked for a better cat/friend.
RIP my big handsome buddy.

I'm very sorry for your loss, our 4 legged best friends really do become a much bigger part of our lives than those without them realize.
My cat dissapleared just before July 4th and I really just wish I had some answers, she had to stay at my mom's house and I truly regret not getting to see her more often.

Sorry to hear that Bruce as I know he meant a lot to you. Thank you for sharing those wonderful pics with us over the years.

My heart goes out to you, I know the feeling.

Heartbreaking news Bruce...these little buggers really worm their way into our hearts. My shop helper Oggie is getting up there and is visibly slowing down. I can't even think about being in the shop without her and her opinions on everything.
Very sorry for your loss....Rob

Sorry to hear that Bruce. Smokey looked like a real character. My first cat had a similar coat.

Sad to hear

Sorry for your loss, Bruce. It's hard losing any member of the family.

Very sorry for your loss and feel your pain. It's always great to have a little garage buddy to hang around us and give encouragement while we're doing chores. Unfortunately for us humans, our little buddies, cats and dogs, do not have a lifespan comparable to us. We, as pet owners already know this, but it doesn't make it any easier when they pass on.

Sorry to hear about your puss mate, I know your pain.

Sorry to her of your loss Bruce.Its never easy when they are part of the family.

Bruce,
Hello ... I hope you will find a new smokey, that was a great and fitting name.
I always got a smile seeing him on a leash .... If the fleas were not so bad here I'd do the same.
Feel better my friend ..

Bruce,
Sorry to hear you lost your cat Smokey O:-). I realize I'm a bit late, but I haven't checked this thread in a loooong time.
Best cure for a lost pet is to get a brand new one as soon as possible.
