Pumpkin - a handsome orangeman, gone way too soon

[cats4ever]

I am so sorry about Pumpkin's sudden passing!
Even though his stay with you was way too short, you made his life perfect with endless love and he returned it ten-fold.

[Felicia's Mom]

I am so sorry.

Rest in Peace Pumpkin.

I am sorry for your loss of dear Pumpkin. I know a bit of what you are feeling. I lost Grey the cat suddenly to a tumor that burst in his bladder. I still can't shake this and beat myself up for what signs I missed and mainly for not insisting the doctor do an x-ray when I first took him to vet for being lethargic that fateful day. An electronic hug to and your family. Also a big electronic hug to Pumpkin. Watch over your family Pumpkin; they will meet you again over the Rainbow Bridge one day.

Well, my ex-brother-in-law passed away at almost 70 years old- and HIS cat, an orange guy who's a tripod cat-- malformed right front leg from birth-- desperately needed a home-- so we now have another Orangeman, and a special needs guy as well-- that helps a lot....... still miss Pumpkin but George, the Tripod Cat, is super friendly and getting to know our pride, so all turned out as it was supposed to, I guess......

My deepest sympathy, dear bowlkat, over the loss of your ex-brother-in-law. How good that is that you now have his kitty George, the Tripod Cat, who needed a home then! He hasn't replaced your dear Pumpkin, but he is super friendly and getting to know your pride. I am sure that Pumpkin Angel is delighted that you are sharing your home and heart with George now! I'm sure you're right, that all turned out as it was supposed to.

Thank you and bless you for welcoming dear George into your family! We know that Pumpkin Angel and all the Angels are rejoicing with you at the Rainbow Bridge!

So very sorry for your loss. I lost my beautiful Milo in May of this year, a pain so deep....
I write because my boy had fluid around his heart and lungs also, perfectly healthy in every other way! He died of heart failure. The sudden passing of your sweet man is another indication of heart failure. I thought you might want to know. I share your pain! May the love you shared overcome the despair of your loss ❤

To all- thank you for your expressions of sympathy and empathy regarding Pumpkin- he is still missed, and 4 is no age to go to the Bridge- but George the Tripod Cat has helped fill the void- his right front leg is malformed from birth, so he didn't have much of a kittenhood and when he was found by my late brother-in-law, they paired up and were pretty happy- but my brother-in-law was in bad shape himself, financially and physically- and now George is in a house with a dozen young playful cats who only want to play with him, and tons of brand-new foods he's never tried before- so EVERYTHING we do with him or feed him is the BEST. THING. EVER to George- and he's SO happy and grateful!! And of course, no one took him aside and told him "You're handicapped, you can't do what other cats do"- so he just DOES it all! Climbing cat trees, jumping on furniture, playing, chasing, wrestling- he's in Heaven! So that helps- it helps a lot.......

Thank you all again- maybe things happen as they're supposed to-
