Earl it's so nice to see you in that playful pose on your back. We are so glad to hear that your heart murmur is benign and I also hope that you at least double your age!

Hey Earl , I would love to see all our Pettalkers bend their head to the left , to get a better view of you !! Want a belly-rub , hey ?!!
I am sending you heaps of kisses and lots of belly-rubs !, because you deserve it , sweet COTD !!

[hardercy]

Great name, Earl! I think you are the perfect accessory for that bed. Stay healthy, baby!

[Cataholic]

Ear the Pearl is right! What a playful youthful boy you are. Possibly it is all that playing around that keeps you so agile? I wish I could give you a big belly rub, but, I will ask your purrants to do that instead! What a Gem we have for the COTD!!

[neko1]

Oh Earl I wanna kiss that belly! Enjoy cotd. Hope you get lots of treats!:D

[smokey the elder]

Earl the Pearl with the paws in the air! Caught any rebounds lately? You are such a handsome white kitty and I'm glad your purr-ents take such good care of you to find out exactly what's wrong!

[catwoman761]

You are such a handsome man. I am glad your heart murmur was benign. I know your humans would hate to lose you. You look so cute with your little paws in the air. Congrats on being COTD!:D
I hope you get lots of treats. Maybe you can come over to my house and even up the odds for my tomcat Manny. I have 3 female cats so its a little one sided over here:) ;) Visit us anytime.:D

Earl, a very special pearl! A California boy I see!

It is very difficult not being able to reach into the screen and give that cute belly of yours a good rubbing.

Congratulations, Earl, on your special honor today!

(glad to hear that you are in good health too!).

[kimlovescats]

I had to chuckle when I saw your picture today. You look ever so cute on your back with your little legs in the air. And the story of a true survivor. Boy oh boy, I hope you're around for a long time to come and keep your humans happy. By the way, white cats rule!!! I have 3 of my own.

Earl, what a treat to greet a beeee-yew-tiful neighbor (well, a couple communities away) as our most respected and honored Cat of the Day.

You deserve it sweetie, for being so durned cute and sweet and funny and being an 'overcoming' kind of guy. May today bring you lots of treats and your own favorite kind of fun stuff, honey!

Hurrah for Earl the Pearl, Cat of the Day! Hurrah, Hurrah, Hurrah!!!

[Howie's Mama]

Wow - a big shout out to our neighbor, Earl from Howie in Willow Glen! Your sweet guy is a very handsome cat and sounds like he has personality to spare!
Congratulations, Earl, on being today's Cat of the Day!

Greetings,

Earl The Pearl was selected as Cat Of The Day for 12 Jan 2003.

Sadly, Earl was put to sleep yesterday following a brief illness.

He will be sorely missed by his owners Peter and Judy, particularly Judy who knew him from the 1990s. (He was a walk in stray, so we have no further history).

Earl was one of the most demanding cats we've lived with, always marching to the beat of his own drum and at times universally annoying humans and other cats alike. But, everyone remembers Earl as winning their hearts and demonstrating exceptional skill (how many cats walk on the alarm clock radio buttons during the night to get attention from sleeping adults?)

He was laid to rest in our garden.

Comments Welcome!

[felinefriend]

Awww, I'm so sorry to hear about Earl's passing, but I know he's very at peace now at the Rainbow Bridge! I do remember his bio well from last January--how adorable his photos are and what a precious personality he had! Thank you for letting us know--our prayers and hearts go out to you in this very sad time of your loss. Earl is a precious Angel that will live in our hearts forever. God Bless!!

[Vio&Juni]

How sad to hear this. Now he's pain free.

[Karen]

We are sorry to hear of Earl's passing, he was a handsome hunk o' cat. You could re-post this over in Cat Memorial, I am sorry but the software doesn't allow me to move just a few posts from within a thread. We are sure Earl will always be with you, curled up in a corner of your heart, and leaving little white hairs on your clothing for years to come.

Karen,

Thank you (and the other Earl "The Pearl" fans out there) for your kind words. Judy found the memorial section of your site last night (I didn't know it existed), and I'm encouraging her to post a new message there.

Earl's nomination as Pet Of The Day (the first in our family) was often spoken as praise by Judy, who is taking his loss very hard.

I hope to make time soon to post in the discussion thread about the changes we're seeing now that Earl has left a gap in our cat clan. Aparently Earl commanded over the other cats more than we humans realized!

Some of our youger cats are keen to be a future Cat Of The Day soon. Wish them good Luck!

I am so sorry for your loss. I am glad he rests in your garden. Earl was such a charming man. I feel in love with his picture. I loved hearing about him. Just remember all the good times you had with your little man.

I'm so sorry to learn of Earl's passing. He was a great cat, with idiosyncrasies that endeared him to his family. He'll be waiting for you at Rainbow Bridge.
