Pussum went at the vet's office at 11AM this morning. As she started to fail and could no longer sit or walk without falling over, we left her a little dignity. Doc sedated her, then stopped her heart. It was quick.

She was born Groundhog's Day 1991 in Enlisted Housing, Nellis AFB, Nevada and left me today after 18 years and 3 months of the best companionship I've ever had. She was truly my child-in-fur.

My heart's broken. Cry

A good and loyal friend, may she rest in piece. Cry

I'd hug you if I could, Beth.

Thanks, everybody. This was my first full day without her and it's hard. She moved in this house when I did, already a cat in her prime at age 5. I miss that unconditional love and the nose sliding stealthily over the edge of my plate after my chicken. I still reflexively saved a few bites for her. Cry
