Know he is at peace and will suffer no longer. As bad as it hurts you now, know that you gave him a great 16 years and he returned each and every one of them. Having a cat for that long is a testament to great pet ownership.

I couldn't have a mean cat with my other cats. At the time we got littleshit and i was afriad that she would hurt the new kitten. Littlshit filled the void but no cat will ever replace her.

I received an e-mail alert about your post regarding your devastating loss. I am so sorry to hear that Bobby has gone to the Rainbow bridge. It's so hard to say goodbye to our best friends.

I have been a pet loss grief volunteer at a site called RainbowsBridge.com for 5 years now, and your post touched me deeply.

How wonderful of you to be looking ahead, and planning to memorialize Bobby with a gift to the ASPCA, especially during your darkest days of sorrow. I know that Angel Bobby is so proud of his momcat! He will live forever and always in your heart, never more than a whisper away from you.

The elder statescat in our home is T.J., a Bengal Cat who will turn 16 on august 4th. He came to us after we lost the defining animal of my life, Bingo (aka: The god Cat). Bingo had lived with cardiomyopathy for 5 years, and peacefully left this earth on his own at the age of 14 years, 1 month, and 11 days. I always tell T.J. that he is my feline savior, because he brought kitty love back to my life when I needed to believe it was possible to love again.

I hope you'll share more about Bobby, and the 16 wonderful years you spent with him,. He was a very lucky guy to have found his way to your loving forever home. I'm sending you virtual hugs of comfort now.
