This was only maybe a few moths ago.
I wonder what happened to make such a Handsome Cat die so soon.
He certainly deserved a better fate, and I am sorry that I couldnt catch him, and add him as a Found Cat.
Hes now a Porch Angel and will be a part of the Porch Angel Strip Mall.
RIP Golden Rod and I pray I will see you again.
One Fine Day :love:

I'm so sorry, such a beautiful kitty! RIP Goldenrod - play well at the Bridge.:(

How sad, Gary. I hope that maybe it was just natural causes, and not something else.

:( Oh Poor Golden Rod.. Sorry your life was taken so soon.. Play hard at the Bridge.. RIP baby

[Prairie Purrs]

I'm very sorry. Golden Rod was so handsome. I'm sure he's playing with the angels at the RB, waving his beautiful foofy tail.

[Killearn Kitties]

I'm so sorry to hear this. :( I thought Golden Rod was a beautiful cat.

Rest in peace, handsome boy.

I just wish they could all live a little longer. They give us so much! A bad week has just been made a bit sadder.:(

What a beautiful boy Golden Rod was. I pray that his passing was quick and painless. RIP, handsome boy and peace to you, Gary. :love:

[Laura's Babies]

I hate to see this Gary. He was such a handsome boy. He is with your other angels now, helping to watch over you and all the Found Cats.

Gary, I am so sorry to learn this news. I'm sure Goldenrod knew he was cared about when he came to the Hotel.

Sleep softly, dear sweet Golden Rod...

[catmandu]

When I see his happy face I just wish I had gotten him in the Found Cat Hotel.
Hes such a Handsome Cat that I just assumed that he was someones Companion Cat , and didnt need rescuing.
Then I would see him a lot thinner and raggedy and I started leaving food in the back yard, and tried to coax him into the EBT Memorial Back Porch Shelter.
Even if I had My Vet have Golden Rod PTS , it would have been a nicer and more dignified passing that his eventual fate.
You deserved a lot better Dear Golden Rod.:eek:
RIP My Dear Porch Cat , and I pray I can see you at Your Porch Angel Strip Mall.:cool:
One Fine Day:love:

I am sorry that he was afraid to come near the Hotel, and I am going to have to keep Tubster Panther in if hes going to scare the Porch Cats off!:(:(
The only one whoo satnds up to him is Pouncer Roccalno, shes a Toughie Woughie!!!:love::love::love:

[CultureJunky]

I'm sorry to see Golden Rod the porch cat was found dead. That is so sad, he looked pretty healthy and not an older cat either.
RIP Golden Rod, you were noticed and loved from afar.

[catmandu]

And did Golden Rod ever enjoy his first Official Meal out with Our Awesome Angel Army!!!
We had the Lone Star Fajitas Special with a Pound Of Fajita Fixings, a Cup Of Cheese , Lots of Chips and a Dessert!!!
:love::love::love:
He sure ate up a storm!!
:):):)
And then we all trooped over to PetsMart and the Awesome Angelshad a ball gathering up thier Favorite Dinners.
My Poor Friend Golden Rod.
I miss you and will treasure your memory.
Until we meet again.
One Fine Day.
:love::love::love::love:

I am so sorry, Gary. I was off line for two weeks and am only now learning about dear Golden Rod. Maybe not a Found Cat but still a Beloved Cat and part of your family.

Prayers for him and you all, and a candle: http://www.gratefulness.org/candles/message.cfm?l=eng&cid=9582591
