Yes, he done good, Juju! I just want him back with me so very badly! Sweetie was quite the little man, so sweet and full of love. Always jumping up on my lap and very content to just ride around with me. Even in the end, this tiny, little 2 pound, 9 ounce sick kitty, had the determination and will to still jump up on my hospital bed. He was and is a rare treasure, that's for sure! Glad you are back, Juju!

I have 7 two-legged grand daughters, but there's just something so special about my 4-legged one.

Mulder Fall of 1996 - September 18, 2006 Yesterday, my kitty, Mulder, had to be put to sleep. He was my first pet that was mine and mine alone. I got him shortly after moving out on my own and he was there with me through some of the hardest times in my life. While he was a bit skittish if you offered him a hand he would gladly rub on it for hours on end. Brushing him was just as simple ... if you held a brush out he would basically brush himself purring the whole time. For the past 6 months he's been living with my mom after we had some issues with stray cats spraying our house and then Mulder spraying to cover it ... it was an endless cycle and with Abby crawling we thought it best he move in with my mom. He was much happier with my mom since it was just her and he didn't have to run from kids wanting to love on him. He would still come over to visit whenever my mom came over for a few days and I would chase him down and have some time with him whenever I visited my mom. We really don't know what happened. My mom told me on Saturday that he hadn't been eating and that he had been hiding in my old bedroom - which was out of the ordinary. I told her to bring him tot he vet on Monday and see what was up. When she brought him in the vet said that his body temp had dropped and that his kidneys might be failing. He said that he could try to give him medicine but in his 30 years he's never seen a cat recover and if he did start to get better that he didn't know how long it would last. My mom wanted to go through with the treatment but the vet talked her out of it saying it would be best to put him to sleep. My mom had gotten very attached to Mulder - he had made her computer desk his second home and would play with her mouse (or just lay on it) to get attention. My heart is broken. Our pets are like our other children.

I am so sorry for your loss, Pamy!! *hugs* Thank you every one for your kind words! Sorry it took me so long to get back to you. Yeah, Mulder was an X-Files kitty. I got him when the X-Files was starting to get pretty big. My ex-roommate and ex-boyfriend were really into it and helped me name him. I just wish I could've spent more time with him before he had to be put to sleep. Haven't been sleeping very well ... but it's getting a little better I think. Thank you again everyone! It means so much to me!!

Sad story.... My boss, Ellen, lives alone, as her two children are grown, and she's been divorced for 15 years. So, 3 or 4 years ago, she adopted "Sugar", and adorable little bichon frise.
This isn't her, but it looks a lot like her. Sugar was everything to Ellen...a constant companion to live with her in her gigantic 5,000 square foot house. I was quite close to Sugar. I remember when Ellen first got her. Often, Ellen is out of town, and whenever she was, my DH and I would stay at her house and take care of Sugar, and I would go over and spend my lunch break at her house with her. Well, tragically, the other morning, Ellen was getting something out of her truck. She has 2 vehicles, just uses the truck for secondary purposes. Well, Sugar had followed her in the truck, and she didn't know it. Sugar was locked in there all day. Ellen came back from work that night, and Sugar didn't greet her like she always did, and couldn't find her anywhere. She assumed she got out and ran off. She sat down at her computer to make missing dog flyers, and something made her go out and check the truck. She did, and that's when she found her. I'm crying as I write this....I couldn't have loved that dog anymore if she were my own. I spent so much time with her, she was so loveable. As soon as she saw you, she would roll over on her back and want you to scratch her tummy. It was the funniest thing. It breaks my heart that she's gone, and my boss is just in pieces. Rainbow Bridge got another good one. Rest In Peace, sweet Sugar.
