Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / June 2005About h0p - The End of the Story
Some of you will remember me and h0p. h0p is my 12 1/2 year old former feral cat who has been my heart and inspiration for these last many years. It's my hope that in my lifetime I can show the bravery, courage, and grace that he has shown in fighting a heart murmer, toxoplasmosis, severe seizures, and a faulty liver. It seems just yesterday that he was "that little grey tuxedo kitten" hiding under a car in the parking lot, waiting to try and scavenge food from the dumpster. h0p has slowed down alot, but still sleeps beside me every night. I find him nuzzled under my chin in the morning, with his paws around my arm. h0p went into a seizure on Tuesday from which he can't return. My beautiful boy will take his last walk this afternoon down that long road, and I will be there with him. I can't imagine what my life will be when I return home without him.

I am so very sorry to hear about h0p's passing. You will be hurting, but he will be fully restored to health and the rpca gang at the RB will show him around. He will wait for you there. *hugs* SignatureVictor M.

Purrs for both of you. You are doing the courageous thing, putting him out of his misery. It's something most of us will have to face, and we all feel for you.

[quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > > Misty, Sam, George, and Ivy I'm so sorry, Dee. We've all had to take that sad drive home with the empty cat carrier. And it's so hard to say farewell to a beloved cat, even when it's the kindest, most merciful thing to do for their sakes. I know it was terribly hard to leave my dear Isadora behind when I had to put her to sleep last spring. h0p sounds like a wonderful cat. {{{Dee}}} Melissa >Some of you will remember me and h0p. h0p is my 12 1/2 year old former >feral cat who has been my heart and inspiration for these last many years. [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > >Misty, Sam, George, and Ivy Sounds like h0p had a lot to fight to stay with you this long. I'm so sorry he that has lost his battle. Without you, his life would have been short, and likely, very miserable. Instead, he was loved and cared for many long, happy years. That's the important thing to think about: the good times you had together, for so many years. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Life without cats would be only marginally worth living." -TC, and the unmercifully, relentlessly, sweet calico kitty, Kenzie.

His incredible strength extended his life by a full 1/3 - from 8 years old to 12 1/2 years old, a long time in the life of a cat. The time came for him to go, and he did so with the same grace and dignity with which he lived his life...not having lost a thing.

Not that I don't care about or root for all the other cats in here, but some of you are even more special than the rest. We'll all miss him and his gallant fight against the odds.

It makes me feel better to know that there are people like you who knew of h0p and his strength - I wish I could tell the world.
