As I sit here reading all of the posts, I asked how I could be laughing but at the same time have tears streaming down my cheeks. It just tells me how all of our emotions can be brought forward at once when we talk about our beloved pets and show their pictures.
I was horrified to read about Tom's story and I feel your loss deeply.
Recently I heard about a "famous name actor"
who walks his dogs without a leash. Those dogs killed my niece's classmate's kitty the same way. He walks his dogs without a leash to protect "him". Because people approach him once they recognize him. Who protects the little cats?
The picture of Tom dressed up made me laugh while I had tears on my face. What a wonderful companion and childhood friend he was for you. There is no question that a bond was formed that knows no bounderies and he will always be a part of you and he loves you dearly.
As you honor his passing today, know that he is happy, purring and filled with love for you and just waiting across the Rainbow Bridge for you to join him one day.

4 Feline House - Cookie and Big made me smile.
How you must love them, allergies and all. Rascal needs a companion and now that summer is drawing to a close, the company has left and my life settles down I am thinking about adopting another kitty. Tuxedo boys are right up on top of my list.

That's a very good question:
"Who protects the little cats?"
I believe that God has angels that he calls "owners" who do the job for him. And, as angels are not perfect, we sometimes make mistakes. Lucky for us, God and cats are so very forgiving!
I am so VERY VERY VERY glad you are considering a tux kitty! Let us know when you find that special 'purr-son.'

Just thought of this...
The kitty site is up and running on the same day that Thomas passed. I did not plan it that way. Funny how some things work themselves out huh?
Mr. Thomas, consider the site a tribute to you and all your other tux kitty friends at the bridge.

What a lovely tribute to your dear Tom! The pictures were so cute, and I'm sure he is looking down from the bridge, smiling and purring away! :)

[QB]Sammi, they make paper towels to match! Bounty for the towels, and Puffs for the kleenex! But they're very hard to find, and I almost never can get both in the same grocery store trip.
They also make napkins, which are equally hard to find. I've got a stockpile of all 3 in my basement; whenever I go to a grocery or Taget-type of store, I buy as many as they may have, which is usually only a couple. I have to take virtually every paper towel roll off the shelf just to find them! :o (But I always "re-stock" the shelves neatly.)

Ha Ha! Leah, I'm glad I'm not alone with the "kitty" paper products! I haven't seen the kleenex box, but I always search the shelves for the paper towels!! I can occasionally find them at the grocery store, but always at Kmart! We love them!! :D

You lost someone very special to you. Tom is with a lot of other beautiful cats in heaven. No more pain. We lost our Samantha 5 yrs ago on December 16th she was 13 and she had the looks of Tom but a little more black than Tom. We miss her still. So sorry to hear of your loss. It was such a tragedy. It is hard we know. You get so attached to them they are your children in fur. Take care!! Our hearts go out to you.

Thanks Ila!
I appreciate everyone's concern and sympathy.

Avajoy & Logan-
I always figured they must make the napkins, too, but have never seen them in any store. Maybe I'll try some new stores and see if I can find them!
-
LOL
I looked for them at the store the other day--no luck. :rolleyes:
Have to make another run later this evening--maybe they will have some then! lol
-
JACKPOT!
We now have several kitty papertowels at our house! :D
Didn't see the tissues though.
-
The paper towels have always been easier for me to find than the kleenexes. In fact, I think it's been about six months since I've seen them.
-
Lets make a mental note that when everyone moves to petTalkville, we'll have to petition the kleenex company for more kitty-kat tissues! (And of course dog-, horse-, bunny-, bird-, etc-, themes wouldn't hurt either!)
-
Well, I went to the store yesterday, and needed napkins, and guess what? Kitty napkins! But still couldn't get the kleenexes. :(
