Little Ben, RIP
Last week we had to have our cat put down. He had cancer in his lungs and a collapsed lung. He started breathing funny that Sunday afternoon; we got him to the Vet the next morning.

He was 9 month old when we rescued him from the pound. That was 8 months ago. He was without a doubt one of the smartest and most personable and affectionate cats we have had.

He is missed.

a sweetie. So young, too.

I hope you can find another loving pound kitty!

12. How kind of you to take him in ....
I'm sure they were 8 wonderful months for him. We need more people like you -- and I am so sorry to hear about Ben.

13. What a handsome guy he was.
I'm sorry for your loss. It's hard to lose an affectionate, intelligent cat, especially that way.

14. So sorry to hear of your loss.
We just adopted a kitten from the shelter in december. A little tabby that our daughter named Ben. He's not the one in the sig line. That is Truffle (aka flumpper or mr. fluffy) who passed away in november at the age of 16.

16. Hard to lose a family member
May he be in peace and that you will find comfort that you were chosen by him in his short Earth journey.
