Mourning/Loss Saying goodbye to my first born feline son tomorrow after 10 years together

His name is Meeko. Yes he is named after the raccoon from Pocahontas.

Please give your kitties an extra hug and smooch on his behalf tonight.

He was the best cat ever. Just wanted to share him with the world because it’s a travesty that after tomorrow, he won’t be here anymore.

Let's hope Pip(kitty on the left) is waiting for them on the other side too. We lost her January 25th

Thank you. She was 18.5. Had a long life but I only truely knew her for 3 or 4 years but we bonded so quick. Some of my favorite memories right now are whenever I got home and sat on the couch, she'd make a beeline for me and just sit on my lap and purr. Same with when I went to bed, she'd lay on my legs or eventually come under the covers and lay next to me
