Mojo Monkey Boy

R.I.P. ~ Mojo Monkey Boy

17 years and 7 months of life with more than 16 of those lived as a 'kitten'. The only cat I've known to be perpetually two years old. Certainly the cat with the most (and most interesting) names... and a tail that wouldn't quit, until now; perhaps the saddest sight of all.

Your charm earned friendships with everyone that you met. Thank you for the many years of joy, love and head butts. The end of an era, my Mojo. It is hard to even remember life before you, but because of you, life has been far richer.

Skip across the bridge, my friend, I will see you again...

You really are having a rotten time right now. Mojo was a beautiful kittie.

Hugs, Jane

Bonequeen ~ Thank you Jane, he was a beautiful boy! Even people that weren't keen on cats liked him. Partly because he just MADE you like him and partly because he had that social, 'wants to please' quality of a dog. I miss him, but I don't cry. He lived a long and wonderful life. He knew he was loved and I will always, always treasure the time I had with him. The first moment I saw him is burned in my brain. =)

I really have missed a lot. I am so sorry to hear this, one of my cats died last year at 11 years old, and the loss of a pet, a constant presence for that long is hard. At least his was a long and well lived life. Our other cat is almost 16 now, and we've had her since she was 5 months. I know I will be sad when she does finally go as well, but as long as they know they are loved, and have been allowed to enjoy their time...at least there can be peace. Lots of hugs to you xoxo
