    I believe Merlin wanted to put your heart at ease Slick. He was a dear and special boy and loved you so much. I am so very sorry he had to leave so soon. Take care and treasure his spirit for it will always be there for you.

    Hugs, Betty

    Slick, I'm so sorry for your loss. I also believe that Merlin was trying to comfort you by having you feel him walk across your chest. Don't be surprised if you feel his presence or even see him again. You gave him so much love and a wonderful caring home and some day you'll be together again. When the time is right I hope that you'll be able to open up your heart and love and adopt another cat once again. RIP magnificent Merlin. Please take care. (((HUGS)))

    I'm so sorry about Merlin, but glad that he checked in on you to let you know he was OK.

    Slick, I’m so very sorry you had to say goodbye to Merlin, I know how it hurts.

    Merlin was so lucky to be able to spend his last years with you, being loved and cared for like a Prince. He could not have found a better home. Not many would take in an older kitty, but you did, and I can see why you couldn’t resist him - such a sweet boy, he was.

    Slick, I’m sure that when you felt Merlin walk across your chest, it was his way of telling you he arrived safely. He is now free of pain and surely getting to know the kitties at the RB, who went there before him - and you will keep him in your heart forever.

    Rest in peace, dear Merlin!

    Sending you love and big ((((hugs))))

    I believe that Merlin was also telling you that he is always near you. He loves you too.

    And here, some wonderful pictures, where he helps Slick organize her linen cupboard:

    Sparkler told me, of COURSE that was Merlin walking across your chest!

    Oh, Slick, OF COURSE THAT WAS MERLIN. Merlin is magic, isn't he? Our loved ones may die, but our love for each other never does.
    Proud to be a crazy cat lady!
