My poor kitty Zipper suddenly died of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Oh, well. He lived a pretty easy-going eight years or so with us, so he had a good life.

In other words you take a look at your faithful cat and you know he's eight years old. Well you don't treat him like he's one and tearin' the place all to hell. You show some respect for your friend. One can observe such things in people at times I reckon.

Understood.
At the same time there is a reason for the term Dog Years. If every individual that ever lived had his life fractioned so that it coincided with a nice...I don't know...ratio...we could all refer to each other in dog years. Now does that make any sense I ask you?

My cat is just the same...She is 16 now, and in her old age is getting quite effectionate..Funny thing, she has learned also to purr so that you can hear her. She used to purr without sound..one could just feel the vibration.
You are right...we all mellow with age :-))

He'll never be a completely indoor kitty, but at least he'll come around when he's hungry. That you can count on.

What a beautiful cat he was...I am so sorry, it is always so hard to loose a beloved pet!

Yes, he was a fine cat. It was strange that during his youthful years he was somewhat reserved and disdainful of being held and petted and such; as he became middle aged (just like me) he mellowed out and sought my lap to sit in and be petted.

I am so sorry to hear about Zipper. Hope you and your mom heal soon, maybe with a new furry friend.

My mother hardly even thinks of Zipper now, since he was much more affectionate with me than with my mom. Cheeto, the other cat, still climbs up into her lap with regularity. So we have the cat fancy thing covered.

You have my condolence friend. Peace be with you...J.O...

Thank you. I am not nearly as badly affected as some folks are when they lose a pet. Perhaps my perspective is a little too long in that I know cats come and go every 15 to 18 years or so, but the people in my life are around for, well, a lifetime.
