I couldn't find any pictures of Gambit by himself - he was always curled up with someone. That's why his nickname was 'Love Shack'. He's sleeping, using his sister as a pillow.


Gambit - September 2010 to August 2011


Thank you for all the good thoughts in my earlier post about him being in surgery. We got the bad news about 1/2 hour after I posted. And since Nin was still at work, I didn't want her to read about it on her phone.

The vet called and said his lower intestine was perforated and that even if he could fix the other parts, he would most likely get peritonitis and would suffer. We decided to let him go, we didn't want him to suffer and be in pain. I had no idea that when we took him to the vet this morning, that by tonight, he'd be gone. He was such a sweet little guy. I love all the kitties, but some really worm their way into your heart, and he was one of those. I'll always remember him trying to comfort me at 3am this morning.

So sorry for your loss
I still remember my cat that I had in San Diego
I was not allowed to take her to my next duty station as I was required to move into bachelor officers' quarters which meant NO ANIMALS................
She was a clone of this cat in my icon

I'm sorry you lost him. :(

This is actually making me really sad and I don't even know your cats.

I wanna go hug mine now.

I'm so sorry, guys. I know just what you mean -- as much as I love my current kittehs, I still miss Gus. But I'm sure Gambit and Gus are frolicking somewhere with lots of fat, lazy mice to play with. {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}

That's such a wonderful picture.

I'm so sorry. It's heartbreaking to lose pets. More than anything, I think, they remind us of our humanity and our capacity to love. Losing them leaves holes...

I still miss my Fuzzy, and Jonesy, and Kiku, and most of all, Keisha my Mal who we had to put down in 2006.

I had a friend visit with a lab and I just want a dog again.

I still have my two crazy guys, Loki and Sheppy, but some of them just worm into our hearts and stay there.

My little lover guy Sheppy sends kitty love.

I'm so sorry I missed this post. You know I completely understand right now and I'm feeling your pain very much. I hope Boo has found Gambit and is watching over him and that they're playing together. ****HUGS****
