Comments on: Friday Cat Blogging No. 76 – Hopper at 15 http://bloggochicago.com/2010/01/15/friday-cat-blogging-no-76-hopper-at-15/ blah blah blah from the northwest side Tue, 29 Jun 2010 21:34:48 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Barb http://bloggochicago.com/2010/01/15/friday-cat-blogging-no-76-hopper-at-15/comment-page-1/#comment-6524 Barb Thu, 21 Jan 2010 02:04:47 +0000 http://bloggochicago.com/?p=3442#comment-6524 Thanks, Boo. Basil was really sick a couple of weeks ago (post to follow some time) and I was afraid we’d lose him; he’s 14 and has a number of “old folks” ailments. I know their time will come soon, and I’m preparing myself, but I can’t imagine it’ll be easy. Thanks, Boo.

I don't and most likely will not have human ones. My cats, to me, are different from friends — they’re my fur kids. I don’t and most likely will not have human ones.

When I had to put my Sully to sleep 2 1/2 years ago I was devastated. Beyond that really. For reasons I can't explain it was worse than losing a friend. I fell apart. It is really hard to talk about because most people don't understand. I wish I had taken more pictures over the years. It was a shock because It was so sudden. But like you say I am preparing myself as well. Sadly no it will not be easy. When I had to put my Sully to sleep 2 1/2 years ago I was devastated. Beyond that really.

And remember -- I wasn't a cat person, either, until Hopper came into my life. Sappy but true. Thanks, Wes! And remember — I wasn’t a cat person, either, until Hopper came into my life.

My Ethel is turning 16 soon. She is all attitude. My little Sully, who would be 15 sort of reminds me of your Hopper. She passed almost three years ago, and to this day I cry like a baby for her. She was my heart. Ethel was my first cat, and it just doesn't seem like 16 years ago I bought her for 10 dollars at a Kroger store in Charlottesville Virginia. LOL!
