Dearest Otto,

Reading your story made me happy and sad at the same time. For a while you seemed to be a tough guy who only wanted to be left alone. But as people grew to know you, it was discovered hat you had a sweet side, and would let people love on you. You just needed some time to warm up, and that’s totally understandable!

You knew what you wanted and built a life for yourself where you could be happy
You were the neighborhood cat who everyone knew and fed, but you were content living on your own, independently, only stopping by to grab the food that people left out for you.

But eventually, you grew fond of the humans, and trusted them enough to let them cuddle you a bit, but on your own terms, of course.

You sound like a such a great kitty, Otto, and I wish I had known you. But it makes me happy to hear that you were loved by so many of the residents that lived in your small town. And I know you will always be remembered by them.

It made me sad to read that you left at the young at of 8, but I know that you had a good life and you had lots of people who cared for you, and that’s what counts. Plus, you aren’t really gone, you are in a better place watching over your kingdom from up above.

You had a strong purrsonality that will definitely not be forgotten ❤️

It seems that you passed down your role as the dominant tomcat to another cat, and now your spirit lives on in him. So don’t worry, your kingdom is in good hands 😸

Best wishes to you and all who had the pleasure of knowing you, Otto. I know that you are living the best life possible up there in the rainbow bridge 🌈
