R I P Miggs, Aka The Scabby Tabby

[Baldric]

At 1830 tonight our Scabby Tabby, Miggs, left us with a little help from a very kind and gentle Vet who had been monitoring him for the last couple of months, he'd not been very well for some time, he went downhill over the weekend. He passed away on a blanket on my lap.
He was 14½ years old, we had had him from about 7 weeks.
He was Boss Cat as far as the Dobies were concerned, he teased the hell out of them on a daily basis and got a lot of respect in return, and a space in their beds when it was cold.
Think we'll all miss him.

Condolences to you all, Baldric ...a peaceful end to a wonderful life.

I am sorry to hear that, Baldric. I bet he had a fantastic life with you. The dogs will miss him as well. xx

So sorry Baldric, how do you tell the Dobies?

[Baldric]

Thanks Guys,

well out of character!

Commiserations, Baldric, it's a big loss; just like with humans, remember the good time with him.

Very sorry to hear this Baldric - always tough, especially when you've been pals for so long. Thinks of all the good times, chuckles you had and the fact that he had the best life with you and the Dobies xxx

So sorry to hear your news Baldric, I know how you must be feeling. Please know my thoughts are with you

Oh Baldric, I am so sorry. Your vet sounds like ours - so kind and considerate. We still miss our Rover, three weeks on. My eyes too are moist on your behalf x

Cats get under your skin Baldric.

Thats very sad Baldric. My 20 yr old cat went to sleep on my lap at the vets many years ago. i still miss Pusskin today. She was very special and have never wanted a cat to replace her.

[Baldric]

Thank you, it's appreciated.

[Ouzel]

That's so sad - they really are part of the family. Miggs sounds like he was a cat with attitude - a true character. The dogs will miss him too. Take care.

Baldric - I am sorry to hear your news. :-(

They are small animals with a huge personality (purrsonality) and it sounds like your wee boy had a happy life.

I know how you feel Baldric. I lost mine under very similar circumstances. There is no grief like it. It took me a long time, but you do get over it but never forget them.

Just read your sad news Baldric (couldn't sleep). So sorry, sounds like Miggs was a character. Lovely name by the way, Miggs, never heard it before. Glad he had a peaceful end and with those he loved. X
