    It was Joseph and Miquelito who found John Hnacock lying half in and half out of the Cat Stand.
    Joseph was gently kneading John Hancock , and I think trying to awaken his Companion.
    It was so touching and sad.
    John Hancocks gone to be cremated and then he will be with Precious, Ebony Beau Tubster , Gem and Bo Bo by the wishing well.
    I feel so badly that John Hancock wouldnt trust me to put him in the carrier so My Vet could pick him up.

    And the sad thing is that Scrappy 2, Pouncierge and Miquelito are like that I cant catch them either.
    What will I do if they fall ill.
    I am so sad.

    At least John Hancocks iin Heaven now , but I wonder if he would be if I could have caught him.Its sad that after 9 years he still ran away.

    Dear John Hancock had a longer life because he was at the Hotel, Gary.

    He had decided that no one was going to pick him up, and lived that determination out to the end. Stubborn types, Meezers can be.

    John, you are with all your Hotel friends again. Rest in peace, dear kitty.

    He had the BEST possiable home in the world that a handsome cat like him could have. He also had all the love a boy could want. He knew he was loved, by you and by all of us here. He was a star here on earth and he has moved on to shine brighter than ever.

    Gary, don't beat yourself up because he wouldn't let you catch him. You had 9 WONDERFUL years with him that he may not have had, if you hadn't found him. I know you will miss him...and we will too! ((((HUGS))))) to you and his fur buddies.

    I have no doubt that you all will walk across that bridge together one beautiful day!

    Gary, John Hancock and his Meezer partners and all their Found and Porch and Poofed Cat companions have all had so much richer, so much better lives than they would ever have had had they not come into your life. YOU have made the difference, have given them all the world to love and enjoy.

    As Candace says, John was stubborn and determined to do things his way. He died peacefully and restfully at home, with all his beloved fur-siblings and his wonderful dad, the best dad ever, nearby.

    You and he and all the others can sit down together and have a beer and talk over this and everything else you've ever wanted to discuss with each other.. one fine day.

    Gary,

    So sorry that your handsome wedgie Meezer needed to cross over.
    He lived on his own terms, and that's how he was happy. Sometimes they are just inconsolable when their companions leave.

    JH is so grateful to you for loving him and letting him be the cat he needed to be. Let your heart rest over him. You do a good thing for these souls.

    How Grand the Reunion will be! One Fine Day.

    Rose

    Gary, if ever there was a person who shouldn't ask "what if", it's you. You gone above and beyond for all of your fur family and John Hancock was no exception. He slept away and that's a wonderful thing, no long drawn out suffering, just peace. I hope that you're able to find some, too, and soon. RIP, John Hancock and peace to you, Gary.
    Blessings,
    Mary

    You know Gary, Medusa is absolutely right there, spot on. And gee those Siamese can indeed be stubborn I know I recently got my 4th. Please know you always did your best for them and even not forcing him to be picked up and taken to the vet was doing the best in his book. Maybe he just felt it was his time and you and nothing was going to stop him going. And he didn't want to upset you with a long drawn out painful good-bye.
    Please accept my sincere condolences on your loss, he was a handsome beautiful boy and magnificent specimen of his breed.
    And yes he did have the best Dad in all the world.
    RIP John Hancock
    Sleep easily Gary, your conscience is clear.

    Aw, Gary, I am so sorry. I just found this. I have one who fights me when I pick her up too. Grandma will jump on the bed for pets but if she thinks you are even thinking of picking her up she runs.

    John Hancock you are so missed by your cat dad and fur siblings here. Be well and say Hi to all our precious RB babies for us.
    No matter what anyone does, someone some where will be offended some how!!!!
