This is wonderful - and so sad. I'm so sorry for your loss ... they are family. I would be LOST without my kitties - my Sugar is the sweetest spirit I have even known, human or otherwise, and she gives me so much joy on a daily basis. My Princess, (pure blood Odd-Eyed Turkish Angora), tests my patience daily, but I love her for it as well, and she's so unique! (I live in Maine! We are proud of our name-sake breed, lol).

Haha, well, these giants are the gentlest of cats, and they all have such unique characters. We miss our oddball terribly.

Wow, I have always been amazed by these cats. I love cats as it is but have never seen a Maine Coon in person, but am very familiar with the breed. So sorry one of them passed...that makes me sad. I have four cats at the moment, the newest, just a kitten who showed up, but all of them are special to me as I am sure these cats are to you and your sister. Nicely done Darren.

Oh Penquin. I'm so sorry. I know what a pet means. They are more than love comfort and joy. They are our family. We had a family cat for 16 years before he passed and I miss him so. He was full of life and personality and yes love. He was tops with me and his friends of the neighborhood. You read right his friends. Please accept my sincere condolence to you and your sister. Have a wonderful night Darren.
