Once in awhile, a post makes me cry - and your telling about Twicket was one of these posts. I also feel sad that someone else had him for all those years...and that someone did not love him. But two years with someone who adores him must seem like heaven on earth to him. Thinking of losing a pet again is so very hard - even if it is not to be soon - seeing the signs of aging is so hard. I have five young cats now but they came after years with my last two geriatrics. These babies will be our last babies I am sure - only older kitties from now on.

Even though the aging is so hard to watch - there is also something very graceful about it. I don't mean the wobbly landings or the losing weight and appetite - just knowing that that older cat is now so very happy and content with someone to cuddle with and they seem to have a certain dignity to me. Then, I also am drawn to older people, too. Age holds a certain appeal to me.

I hope you have lots of days, weeks, months and maybe even years with Twicket! But even if the time does not amount to years - I can tell you are enjoying your days with him. He is so handsome!! Do you have more pictures to post? I wish I could give him some scritches

You and Twicket have my thoughts for sure! I have said my prayer for today also. Thank you for sharing him
