alikiBorn summer 1989 in Virginia.
The "cat that lived on love". Who cherished all others. Who perservered against odds. Who loved all creatures on this Earth. Who showed compassion for everyone.
Passed away today, Wednesday, May 17, 2006.
Last Thursday, he lost control of his bowels and started soiling himself. This went on for three days, and then it stopped, we realized, because he had ceased eating. I guess he realized it was time. There was no more need to eat.
After almost a week of not eating, 17-year old Rufus finally died today.
