Sad, sad times.
For the 2nd time in a fortnight I've had to say a final farewell to a beloved feline companion.
Both "my boys" are gone now.
I don't, I can't "know" how much Pixel (MommaCat) understands, but she's hardly left my side all day. Curled up on the bed behind me right now in fact.
-She hasn't slept on the bed since the kittens were born.
The 'looks' & vocalisations, the unusual affection she's given me today hint at some understanding that something is different now. I've talked to her as I would a friend, of my sadness & sorrow for her loss.
Khans' last night on earth was a happy one. During the early part of the evening he was being petted & fussed over by about a dozen people - not only was it a clubnite but my housemate also had a pre-pub crawl gathering going on. Both Pixel & Khan 'did the rounds' of strokes & tickles then Khan settled down on the computer chair. My last certain memory of him is of scooping him out of the chair & holding him to my heart as I sat down to "pimp the play-list", around after midnite I guess.
Sometime after that he went off for his customary nocturnal prowl. His last.
