Missing My Brother

Whiskers was my older brother. I still misses him a lot. He made me feel welcome the very first day I came to live here as a young kitten. We hung out together all the time until he died in 2007 because of the petfood recall. He has a blog Whiskers ~ The Last Meow, it deals with animal welfare issues so sometimes the post are a bit sad and Mommy hasn't posted on there in a long time.  When he was alive we didn't know about cat blogging and Facebook, which is a shame because he would have LOVED IT.  He loved meeting new people and animals. He even brought home a dog once, it was a Cocker Spaniel the kids named Jello. Besides being a handsome Tuxie boy he was a Hemingway Cat and he could open cabinets with his paws and liked to get under the sink in the bathroom and sit on the towels. He was adopted in December he was a Christmas present for the boys and grew up with them. ~Socks

It is hard to lose a sibling. I miss my Georgia cat all the time. It sounds like a very important and useful topic of a blog, but one that would be hard to keep up with for your human. We appreciate the people who do that sort of work but know we could never keep up with that kind of thing...
