I have no real reason to refer to my boy as part Bengal other than to help explain his spirited personality :). Sounds like I just have a lively DSH tabby on my hands. Thanks for the input, everyone!

Thank you for the replies and the compliments, Silver and Witch :). Additional photos if others want to chime in but sounds like he may be a classic DSH tabby.

I adopted a stray cat who is different than any other cat I've ever had. He is more wild, extremely high energy/high needs, jumps in the tub with me, has silky fur, gets easily bored and destructive, is long and lanky with a small head (but very strong), and is totally fearless and has to be in...

These photos are amazing and to be cherished! Lots of great memories that will always live on. Both boys are incredibly handsome and I got a kick out of your cat's name, Crackhead, haha :). Thank you for sharing these!

OhYes, I am terribly sorry to hear about your very recent loss. What a heart wrenching decision you had to make, but it took enormous selflessness to prioritize your kitty's happiness over your own. A true example of love. I do acknowledge how lucky I was that Tigger was so easy and never...

Wonderful suggestions and guidance, thank you for posting this! I have done many of the things on your list and agree they are helpful. Wanted to add for anyone interested that I had a replica of Tigger made and have him in Tigger's favorite heated bed right next to me. Needle Felted Cat...

I'm so sorry you are still grieving the loss of your Leo and Mc, they clearly meant a lot to you. You helped me and made me smile to know that I may have brought you a tiny bit of relief last night. Take care of yourself and feel free to reach out.

What a compliment, Furballsmom, thank you. I feel the same way about you :).

I am so touched and comforted by every single one of your comments and relieved to feel understood. Thank you! It's easy to feel shame for being so attached to an animal and have it rock your world to the extent it has mine, so I appreciate you all normalizing my experience. I know you all...

I lost my 17-year-old soul cat, Tigger, yesterday. I've never loved anything as much as Tigger and he had this amazing ability to bring me instant joy with little effort. Tigger fought a long decade plus battle with CKD and overcame many, many other health struggles but he always rallied. We...

You must miss your baby so much. I hope you find comfort during this time 

So sad to hear you lost your best friend, Su. I know this is a very hard time for you. I'm glad that Su didn't suffer for too long and you were able to say goodbye. You gave her a long, beautiful life. Please take good care of yourself and reach out to us if you need support.  Tonks, What a...

He's such a handsome tabby, like my Tigger 

Oh my, you and Su have certainly been through a lot. Sounds like you guys have given it your best shot. So sorry to hear Su is now blind too! How heartbreaking. That's unfortunate that you don't have access to donor blood for a transfusion. Very tough situation. I really feel for you and what...

Wow, so sorry your Su is declining so rapidly. It's really hard to accept when it happens so suddenly. It's the most helpless and stressful feeling when you can't help your baby.  While I'm not a vet, there are treatments your vet definitely could be trying for the anemia, such as medications...

Also, cats with anemia get very cold. Hopefully you are making a warm nest for Su or providing a heating pad. I also just wanted to say that if fear is holding you back from euthanasia, it really isn't scary. Your kitty gets a shot and goes to sleep very peacefully. I can understand if you...

Sure, I respect your beliefs. Sounds like you are here for emotional support. This must be so devastating for you and terrible for Su. Would be good if your vet prescribed something for pain so he doesn't suffer but I don't know regulations there on that type of thing. 19 years is a very long...

Wow I am so sorry to hear you guys are going through this! I'm not at my computer so I'll write more later but I found these 2 places who might be able to help: Animal Rescue Kansai – Founded by a foreigner back in 1990, ARK is one of Japan’s foremost animal charities. Japan Cat Network - Also...

Hi Ollie, I will reply to you privately.

Hi OllieBoy, What a heartbreaking time you are going through. It really pained me to read this as I can only imagine the grief, helplessness, and guilt you must be experiencing right now. First, I want to say please don't beat yourself up over the loss of Oliver. The guilt and what ifs can eat...
