    Cato's Last Day Today

    Today, Thursday November 3rd, I had to have my beloved 19-year-old cat, Cato, put to sleep. He was a sweet, affectionate guy who everyone loved and people remember for being such a character. He was loud and talkative, and used to sometimes sound like he was saying "huLLO." Please see my photos of Cato. He was a handsome white with orange spots and an orange striped tail. Of the household, he is survived by cats Serena, Koji, Miette, and kittens Cami and Tyli. I'll love him forever and am thankful for all of his years, but he will be sorely missed.

    Deepest sympathy on the loss of your beloved Cato, to you and all who love him so much. What a handsome cat.. thanks for posting his picture, Karen.

    19 years, what a wonderful long life he has had! He is now strong and healthy again at the Rainbow Bridge, and you and he are together always. Love is eternal.

    Cato Plays Guitar

    Thanks to everyone for your kind words of condolence, and to Karen for posting the photo of Cato.

    Yes, he was a comfort to Chloe at that time, and now I hope he can see her, his brother C.B., their mom Sophie and all he knew who have gone. Mostly, I hope he's with my husband. They were very close and loving in life and now I hope Danny will have our Cato, our "Copper Top," to cuddle with where they are now.


    I'm not sure how to make this photo smaller - sorry, but here it is anyway: "Cato Plays Guitar."
