On Monday 23 May, we put my soul cat Chessy (or Chester as my husband liked to call him) to rest at home. He was 15 and had kidney disease, liver disease, and diabetes in the end.
I rescued Chessy in 2006, when he was 5, from a local animal shelter and had him for 10 years. He was really the best cat I have ever met, and everyone loved him. He would follow me everywhere, talk to me all the time, and greet everyone who came to the door. He loved everyone he met. We also had special bonding time every night when he would follow me to bed, lay on my stomach for petting and purring, and sleep by my feet. Our house is so quiet now without him, and my heart is broken. We have another cat, Mia, who also misses him very much. His ashes are supposed to be delivered to my vet this week.
My husband helped me make a video in memory of him. It's only a couple minutes long. RIP Chester.
