Hey, what happened to Travis? I didn't know you guys had a cat?

Well I didn't "have" a cat, because he was absolutely his own cat. But he just strolled up to me in the front yard in Florida when I was about 14, like he owned the place. He zipped in the front door. From then on he was the cat of the house... He stayed with the folks when I moved to Texas and to California.

Did he just die? I thought he died years ago. How old was he?

He died last week.

I think he was 16 or so... Nobody knows for sure because he found us and "moved in" so we just went with the vet's estimate of his age.

that sucks....atleast he had a good life living with a great family as yours....

My cat is the same just turned up in my garden and ran through the door after that we just couldnt bring ourselves to evict him we have had him for 6 or so years now and if something did happen to him i dont think life would be the same for us.
