Oliver April 2, 1989 - September 29, 2009 You blessed our lives for 20 years, were always a joy, and the "best boy that ever lived." We loved you with all our hearts. We will miss you more than words can express. "Mommy" and "Daddy"

Scary title there, momentarily! If he hasn't been embalmed yet, it might yet be possible to clone him.
Redneck vs. cop: Redneck. Cop vs. n-word: Cop. n-word vs. white guilter: n-word. Being a lawyer knocks you down a peg, so redneck lawyer vs. cop and n-word lawyer vs. white guilter are toss-ups. White guilter lawyers are the lowest form of life. My condolences on your loss. But you can be happy that you gave him a great life, and a very long one at that! Twenty years for a house cat is really good, that's at the high end of possible life expectancy. You obviously did a fantastic job of taking care of him.
Open season on them.

Sorry to hear about the loss of your friend, christine. Animals are greater friends than human oft times. Every time I take an attachment to a pet, I know I'm letting myself in for the inevitable. Another little buddy will come wandering by once a decent interval has passed, I'm sure.

Oliver will live on in your hearts and minds forever. RIP best friend, you are gone, but never forgotten, most spoiled rotten cat in the world. The monitor goes blurry again...

"Today cats live longer than ever. Just 20 years ago the life expectancy of a cat was four to six years; today they live 15 years or more. Life expectancy in cats depends on many things, but the most important factor is whether he is an indoor-only cat or an outdoor cat. Life expectancy varies significantly between the two.....Indoor cats generally live from 12-18 years of age. Many may live to be in their early 20s. The oldest reported cat was 28 years old at the time of death.....Outdoor cats generally live to be around four to five years of age. Their deaths are typically due to traumas such as being hit by a car or dog attacks. Outdoor cats are also more susceptible to several deadly viruses that are spread by fighting or prolonged intimate contact with an infected cat." http://www.petplace.com/cats/life-expectancy-in-cats/page1.aspx One of our cats was run over by a car. The lady next door lost hers to a coyote. We have a cat fence now --- the only way to go....Link

Oh, the pain, the loss ! Christine, I'm sure sorry. I went from being foolishly disdainful of cats to having one walk into my life and directly into my heart. Such magnificent loves they are.....Miss Bitty passed away 2 years ago and, finally, I'm ready to turn myself over to another. Thankfully, the pain lessens and the memories sustain. Sympathy and hugs for you and your family. Bub

Good grief, who whizzed in your Wheaties this morning? Christine has just suffered a very painful loss of a good pet and companion for the last twenty years. What the heck is wrong with you? Normally I'd suggest contacting the charm school you attended and demand a refund, but in your case I think it would be more appropriate to sue them for malpractice...

So very sorry to hear of your loss! I understand just how devastating it can be. I know many can't understand the loss one feels for a pet, but once attached it is a part of you!!! Again so sorry to hear. And some people just have no conscious what so ever! Sheesh!

#26. To: christine (#0)
Sweetie, I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. It's the love that you shared that matters most and it's obvious there was a great deal of that.....that blessing will help ease the pain and prepare you to love again in time.
#27. To: christine (#0)
Oliver was family, only nicer. He gave you both unconditional love and unless someone experiences that, it can't be explained adequately. Having lost the best Golden Retriever god ever put on this planet, I can empathize with you and Bill. Today will be the worst day you experience, as time is the only remedy for the pain you feel. Nobody knows the time or place when the end comes, but Oliver left today at home with his family present. That will comfort you as the weeks turn to months. Peace Oliver, and say hello for Cody for me.

I don't know "what is wrong" about my post other than cats piss and shit all over property. They stink and are not clean. And, like yourself, I have never owned any and wouldn't consider ownership except to send them to China where cats are used as a daily human diet.
That's just wrong...and I've never owned a cat.

Don't give me any further grief about someone's dtinly, dead cat. I despise cats. As I said in my first post on this thread, I would have murdered the goddamned animal at conception. It would have been suffocated in a burlap bag and never seen the light of the Sun, along with the rest of it's catery. Those damned animals stink! I find it amazing that some people allow them in their homes ... like a rat.

Why wouldn't you believe it? Thanks for sticking up for me. BTW, I have a few burlap bags available for murdering cats. Here is how we do it: step 1) place the goddamned creatures into the bag. step 2) place the bag into a barrow of water. step 3) after five or so minutes, pull the bag out and throw it in the trash. No mess ... no fuss... what-so-ever!

My sympathies, Oliver reminds me of my own little monster mutt.
In 2007, the FBI reported on concern about white supremacists recruiting soldiers, saying "hundreds" of neo-Nazis were in the active military. But in April, a Department of Homeland Security report on extremism that reiterated much the same point was widely criticized by veterans groups and some conservative politicians as being unpatriotic, leading the Justice Department to retract the DHS report. Critics acknowledge that extremism in the Army is a touchy political subject.

What? You want a dead-cat thread? Lets see now .... The live cats are the ones that can run faster than dogs. Why was nearsightedness fatal for the dead cat? He thought he was climbing onto an ottoman, and it turned out to be a sleeping Saint Bernard. Why do we know there are a lot of dead cats in hell? Because you aren't allowed to lick your hind end in heaven. Why do so many dead cats have four broken legs? That's what happens when you fall out of a hundred-foot tree, and land on your feet. How do you know which cats have had near-death experiences? They're the ones that have short tails, with a dog's teeth marks at the end. When do you know that a cat has been dead for an hour or more? When he doesn't have any saliva on his anus. What were the last words heard by the dead cat? "Look, Mama, that kitty is going into the doghouse." Why do most cats die in the morning? Because most dogs sleep in the afternoon. What was the practical joke that the dogs played on the dead cat on a windy day? They put vodka in his milk, then chased him up an aspen tree. Why do cats get fatigued when they commit suicide? Because they have to do it nine times. Why was the dead cat found with a charred tail, in the breakfast nook? He didn't realize he could get his tail caught in the toaster.Why are dead cats fatter than live cats?

If it's an indoor-only cat, you check the litterbox once a day and scoop out the poop and clumped urine and tie in a Wal-Mart bag and dispose of it. The owners who let the litterbox get out of control are responsible for bad smells, if you stay on top of it then it's all good.

Why go through that rigmarole? Keep the litterbox next to the toilet and scoop the clumps into that instead. I've heard people say that it clogs the plumbing but we have five cats, four litterboxes and have been doing it for years.

I fed a feral cat for almost a year from the time I first saw him when he was about 3 months old. He used to like to fetch a small piece of rolled up paper. One night, as I sat there, he came and slowly climbed up in my lap, and began purring and kneading my legs. He did it many times after that. He disappeared a year and two days ago, and I searched for him for 10 months. I'm still not over him, so I can only imagine how much more you are hurting, christine, and my heart breaks for you. Not a sparrow falls without God noticing. All tears will be wiped away when Jesus comes back, and He "told" me a long time ago I would see a beloved dog again, so I trust we will see our cats again, too. Until then, hold tight the memories of your well-loved boy, cry as much as you need to, trust God to make you whole again, and know we're all pulling for you [or at least, MOST of us].

I guess you could call it that. I asked for a sign as I looked out into the back yard. I asked for the honeysuckle tree [not bush, TREE, which is most beautiful btw...I love that thing] to sway. It was a very still day and nothing was moving, but no sooner did I ask, but the tree started to sway as if a big gust of wind had hit it. I was quick to notice nothing else was moving, just the honeysuckle tree. I thought wow, maybe it was just a coincidence, so would You mind doing that again? The tree swayed and the branches bent over to within about a foot or two of the ground, more than I had ever seen, even in the biggest ice storms, and still, no other trees were moving. I said, okay, just one more time, to be sure....and nothing happened. Immediately it came to mind, "O ye of so little faith," and I thought okay, God, I believe you.

Yes it was a vision for my dog. However, we have asked and been given signs for other pets as well, such as guinea pigs and rabbits. It has gotten to the point that we don't even ask anymore, because we now expect they will all be back with us some day, but sometimes some sort of sign is given anyway. I gather you don't like cats, but God created them, and when He was done creating, He stood back from His creation, ALL of it, and said it was very good. I was always a dog person, but when this cat came into my life that changed a bit. Now I love them both.

The loss of your 20-year friend must be very hard. We lost a 15-year old and a 16-year old last year. Condolences to you. He was beautiful. And over such a period of time, they become very intelligent and attuned to their human friends. (Message to buckeroo: if you don't have anything good to say, move on. And house cats do not stink if they are properly cared for - anymore than any other animal. You're talking about something you know nothing about.)

I stated my opinion on this thread. Stinky, smelly cats and rats should suffer the BIG denial of life; and I have a burlap bag to help mankind over the crisis of this thread.

I admit - in your case goats may be a possibility.
What about chickens, turkeys and goats? Aren't they special too?

My condolences, Chrissy. You have lots of great memories to cherish. I know you'll enjoy them. Be well.

I feel sorry for anyone who's so out of touch with reality as you are. "Reality" being that which is most important in life. I hope your future goes better for you than your past. I mean that.

My condolences. I'm sorry to hear of your loss.

I suppose you have a hair-ball in your soup.

What a POS are you to say such a thing to Christine. Perhaps the same should have been done at your breeding. I share that sentiment my friend. Christine is nice to everyone and even allowed buck back on here even when he was trying to fool her with different screen names. She was gracious enough to allow him to come back and this is how he repays her. He better be glad it isn't my board because he would be out of here for cold, callous remarks like that. No one should ever make light of the loss of someone's pet. Only people who have pets and who have become attached to them know the pain when something happens to them. You and Bill have my sympathies Christine. Was very sorry to read about Oliver's passing but I hope you can take some comfort in the fact that you gave him a wonderful life.
WTF is wrong with you?

Oh boy; I missed this one. What a POS you prove to be nearly every single day of your sorry life, buck...

I had a great time yesterday afternoon meeting Beau, the newest spoiled rotten kitty, in Christine's home. Possibly, the most mellow little fellow that I've ever seen.

Possibly, the most mellow little fellow that I've ever seen. Thanks for sharing the good news. No pet ever takes the place of the ones who have gone on but the new one will be special in his own right. They all are if you love them.

So very true, JD.

If I were any better I would have to be twins...or something like that. Seriously, I am doing ok I suppose. Glad you are well.

thank you all for your kind expressions of sympathy. here's photos of our new little boy. he's almost 5 mos old, a dollface red tabby persian. as my girlfriend wrote, Oliver left some big shoes to fill, but looking at the pictures of that precious baby makes me believe he's the one that can do it.

Well put. They all have very different personalities. You should consider getting one or two more. Three cats aren't any more trouble than one cat.

we have a 13 yr old female maine coon who is having a tizzy over this one interloper. another one or two might cause her to retreat too much. she's a shy, damaged cat who we adopted after she was rescued from an abusive situation. with our care and love, she's thrived, but it took us years to get her to where she is now.

How badly have you spoiled the cat to this point ??? <8^}~
