I am reminded of a scene from Four Weddings and a Funeral. It's been a long time since I saw it so let the corrections to my adapted misquote go:Sam was a bastard. He was sort of bitchy and always backtalked everything you said to him. But he was my bastard. He was my bastard in that, in a way, he was my first cat. Not the first cat in my life, but the first I ever really bonded with. Maybe it is symbolic of how much alike we were.
He'll be missed.

Hey,
I recently lost Maxxdog so I know how you felt. I haven't had a pet since I was 10. Then I get Maxx when Deb and I got married 15 years ago and we just put him down 2 weeks ago.
Hurt.
Update: Footnote 1
"...living in a 600 square foot metal tool shed in the woods in the middle of nowhere with the wife (Ellie May), 2 shelter rescue dogs and XX (2) bulimic cats."
Really, I'm sorry to hear of Sam's demise ... my condolences.
Sorry to hear about the loss of your pet.
our pets become our best friends....and it is so hard to lose them. Big huge piece of your heart ripped out...I'm so sorry about Sam. I understand how you feel...
Sorry to hear about Sam... I really liked it when he licked bacon juice off my fingers...
He always gave me a reason to wear a dark shirt over for happy hour. I miss him too.
