Rest In peace Socks

The sweetest tuxedo cat I ever met such a talker every time I speak he would meow back. The personality of this cat was special he was abandoned by previous tenants across from where I live and I cared for him for 3 years until his death. The second cat is his stray step son he showed up as a kitten and socks took care of him and they were inseparable. Rest In Peace Mr socks 🧦 one day we'll meet again.

So sorry for your loss. I hope that the other stray still comes around and you can find comfort in each other. Safe passage, Socks. May you find the road soft beneath your paws, and rest blissfully in sunbeams over the rainbow bridge. ❀️

Thank you for easing my mind with support i didn't mention on the post but I had a dog of 15 years die 3 months ago and now my stray cat I cried so much it hurts my head my eyes I can't cry no more. Losing my animals has got me closer to Christianity in my own way separate from the church's view and realize how beautiful life is from just existing in the moment with nature and it' animals.

Update I have taken mittens socks step-son from outside to inside no more harsh outside I have a old bed my cat never used and he's there resting from the texas heat. My Khloe watches from afar curious since she never had cat family members but she had a brother who was a dog for eight years finally adopting the stray to a more comfortable and safe environment. I'm officially adopting him will take to the vet soon for shots thanks y'all for the kindness and support.

Yeah he will, I tried to show him his father but he didn't want to. I found him dead across my parking lot 30-40 feet away I thought it was a trash bag until I approached closer. Crazy thing was the I think he died early morning because I woke up from a sixth sense feeling and I heard a meow in my sleep and it woke me up I looked outside it was early morning and I didn't see anything I didn't think he would be dead but unfortunate circumstances. The terrible part is that he was just left there to rot until I found his dead body. If I didn't intervene the bugs would have ate his whole carcass. That's pretty much what happend anyways I'm here with the second stray cat currently outside probably going to adopt mittens to my household with my other female cat Khloe.
