    Sam has gone to the Bridge

    These are photos of my dear Sam or Stham as I called him.

    He went to the Bridge today, Dec 2, 2014. He was 11.5 years old. It was a suspected brain tumor, and he had been blind for the last ten days.

    Sam I will miss you.

    His best pic: ole airplane ears.




    Looking at the birdies


    His favorite chair: I think he was giving me a bit of sass.

    Meowmie to Lucy Lou and Barney, and Aunt to Timmy (RIP)

    Former kitties now in foster care: Nellie aka Eleanor van Fluffytail (at a Cat Cafe), Lady Jane Grey, Bob the Bobtail, and Callie. Kimi has been adopted into another family that understands Siamese. HRH Oliver Woodrow von Katz is in a Sanctuary.

    I'm Homeless, but with resources, and learning to live again.


    RIP Timmy (nephew kitty) May 17, 2018, Mr. Spunky (May 10, 2017), Samwise (Dec 2, 2014), Emily (Oct 8, 2013), Rose (Sept 24, 2001), Maggie (Fall 2003)

    Words can't begin to tell you how very sorry I am to hear that your dear Sam has gone to the Bridge. Take comfort knowing that because of you, Sam knew only love, care, and the life every kitty deserves. I'm sure that Groucho, Cassie and the other PT kitties were there to greet Sam and welcome him.

    Comforting [[[[[HUGS]]]]] being sent to you.

    Oh no, I was so sad to see this. I am so sorry.
    Take comfort in knowing he is no longer in pain.

    RIP Sam
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    Oh no, Anne. I'm so sorry to read of this. I was hoping he would rally back, but I guess it wasn't meant to be.

    RIP handsome Sam. You sure will have a lot of PT furkids to play with while you wait for Mom. There are 3 orange men from here, playing around there somewhere. Say hi to Sherbie, O.C. and Chewie when you meet up, and tell them we miss them.

    {{{Hugs}}}, Anne. You have many memories to fall back on - till you meet again.

    Oh, Anne, I am so very sorry.

    What beautiful photos you've shared with us here, of such a beautiful spirit of a cat. Thank you.

    Sam knew nothing but love and care for his whole life with you, and now he is a glorious Angel restored to full health and vitality, being welcomed by so many wonderful PT pets and people. You and Sam are together always, and he will be right there to welcome you Home.. One Fine Day. May your precious memories and keepsakes help to bring you comfort.

    Dearest Sam, please send some purrs to the heart of your loving and beloved Anne to tell her all is well and you are always with her.

    Rest in peace, darling Sam, and God bless you and all who love you so much.

    I am so sorry for the loss of your Sam. I'm sure you gave him a good home and lots of love. I believe you will see him again one day. Maybe my RB Luke will meet him... ((Hugs)) Kay

    That's actually the top of a Cat Tree. It's 4 ft high and short of shaped like a child's drawing of a tree. I'll see if I can find a pic in my albums.

    Thank you for your kind words.

    Thank you all for your kind words. I miss him terribly.

    I'm having him cremated. I also have some of his fur. It wasn't an unusual request.
