My buddy was a rescue. His ear is tipped, which means he was scooped up, fixed and let go again. Then he got beat up in a fight, fixed up and put up for adoption. This January it will be 5 years since I brought him home. My previous bud died of lymphoma in August of 2017. He was another big boy and FIV+.

Our two favorite cats were orange tabbies. Mr Bean weighed 15 lbs and lived for 16 years and he had congestive heart failure for three years - which we treated - until he died two years ago, when Maddie-Lion arrived on our door step. Both orange cats were full of personality, mellow and just idea. Sorry for your loss.
