I want to thank everyone for their kind messages of condolence at the passing of my sweet baby Ike. The messages really did help me sort through my feelings. It helps knowing that you all care and understand. And some of your messages helped confirm what I sort of wondered about – was it something incurable like cancer or kidney failure? I have lost cats to both of these things and the symptoms were the same as Ike had – the sudden and rapid weight loss being the big thing. No coughing, sneezing, vomiting or diarrhea to lead me to suspect he was so sick. Isn’t it weird though, how the passing of just one kitty even when you still have 20 more cats left can make the house feel so empty? I wish we could post pictures here so you could all see my Ike.
