Well I didn't grab the phone fast enough this morning when he dove into the open coin door of my Deadpool, so here's a seasonally appropriate pic of Jarvis when he's not being a bad kitty.

Here's our most recent rescue, Tony, doing his sofa-back shimmy move that we call the "crazy monorail."

When I took this photo of Jarvis laying claim to our latest Amazon box a few days ago, I had no idea it'd be the last picture of him I'd ever take. He had some ongoing health issues that we were getting under control with meds, but then it's like he got up one morning and his heart just decided it wasn't going to work anymore.

I hate to say I had a favorite cat because all pets are awesome, but you know how you sometimes have that pet that just connects with you on a whole other level? That was Jarvis for me. So it's been particularly tough. I'm trying to focus on the good memories, but I'm not quite there yet.

Sorry to bring down the mood of the thread, but I thought maybe everyone could give their furry companions an extra squeeze today in honor of Jarvis.

Thanks, everyone. It does help.

Hahaha, sometimes I wonder why we even give cats government names. Of our four only Tony actually gets called that (named for his similarity to Jarvis, whom we lost last year).

Our latest addition is Julius. My wife calls him Bunny because he likes to play the floor is lava and see how far he can make it across the house solely by leaping.
