This sucks



Houston died a week ago, Sunday.



I miss him terribly.



His big feet.



His bright owl-eyes.



His broad lion's nose.



His raspberry yogurt chin.





The rumble of his purr and his longing to be pet and loved.



He was a fabulous cat. I am so sad.

Oh, no...he looks so much like one of our (sadly lost) furred ones; I ache for you. We lost 3 Maine Coons last year, a Norwegian Forest Cat lookalike a few months earlier; your lovely boy could have been cousin or brother to ours. RIP, Houston. Tchotchke, Reka, Sirin, & Katyushka are purring next to you.
