while at the Hermitage today, I asked about Hobbes, and he was put down just this morning...so heres to Hobbes and all the other poor, brave pets.

Hobbes I miss you without even actually meeting you!

by Paul Gallico extract from "sleep"

cats cradle,
cats slumber,
soft slumber
sleep softly
all cats

I don't know if its fittng or not, but just kind of quickly looked up something to post.
rest in peace Hobbes.
