I have recently lost my beloved cat of many years to cancer. She refused to eat for the last week and when she collapsed I was able to take her to the vet immediately and end her suffering. I know exactly how you feel, cats are wonderful companions and they become part of our lives and full-fledged members of our family. I miss her everyday as I am sure you miss your beautiful ginger. I hope you can find consolation, as I did, in thinking that you gave your friend the best possible life he could have had. If you're interested in discussing cats and atheism, look me up in Facebook, we have a nice group of happy heathens there. http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1363400272 Felix Catus Dan,

We have two orange cats (and, yes, two other cats) and we fail often to cherish every day with them. I'm going to give Pythagoras, Cozemel, Skittles and Butterscotch extra petting tonight in memory of Maori. Thanks for sharing I’m glad Maori lived a good life during his last few years.

Granted, I'm a bit younger than the mentioned landmarks, but I'm right behind you. Remember my first email, etc. I'd moved several times by age 11, so I've always taken the strange position of appreciating my current situation by "viewing" it retrospectively. Pretrospective, heh. Heidegger said something about this. Thanks Dan, carpe blah blah blah. I feel this, deeply. Granted, I’m a bit younger than the mentioned landmarks, but I’m right behind you.
