We lost our wonderful kitty, Ray Bones, a week ago. He was the coolest cat on the planet and we are so sad to have lost him at an early age. He was about 8. Hard to tell exactly because he came to us one cold snowy morning while we are out on a walk. He came running up to us and jumped up in my arms. At first I was not having another cat! Asked Kathy to find him a home. She was patient and knew I'd eventually give in and I am so glad I did. He was the only cat we've had, and we've had plenty, to play with dogs. He loved Lucy and she loved him too. They played a lot when she was a puppy and he continued to put up with it long after he wasn't feeling well. He also traveled to the beach on weekends with us. Never thought we'd be toting a cat with us! He rarely made a peep in the car, just sat in his carrier and enjoyed the ride. When we got there he'd make himself at home and seemed to really enjoy it. He spent as much time out on the screen porch as he could. He loved to be outside but since he was declawed we didn't let him roam outside. So the porch was good enough. There will never be another cat quite like him. May you rest in peace, Ray Bones Fuller Lytle :)
Mother Nature she gave us a treat last Friday night - my birthday :) I assumed it was for me :)
