I just got back inside from burying him. I put him in the yard near the deck so I'll always know where he is and I can visit him.

He was my best friend and the best cat you could ever ask for. Not a mean bone in his entire body. He never bit, scratched or growled. He was a cuddle bug right up until yesterday when he came and kneaded on me before bed last night.

We got him back in 2012 from a petsmart. Originally we planned on getting another cat but Wolfie won us over, he just looked so cute in his cage lying on his back. I remember the other cat jumping on him.

He loved butter and anything diary and would always pester me when I was having milk or cheese. Just 2 weeks ago he jumped up on the counter and took shredded cheese out of a bag.

He always had health problems. When he was young we had to have his teeth pulled due to infection. And his stomach had always bothered him. I wonder if that played a role in his death.

I was with him at the end giving him pets as I watched him take his final breaths.

I love you my little peanut head and hope to see you again someplace better when I pass on to.

Been thinking about him on and off throughout the day since I saw your post earlier and I could not think of anything to say until now that could even begin to address it, am so sorry for what you must be going through :(

It obviously brought you so much joy having Wolfie in your life and I know he felt the same about you. We may take care of animals and call them pets, but it just doesn't describe the literally outsized relationships we develop with them. Really, we are mutual life-companions and miss them so, so dearly when they're gone. I didn't know him except for the pictures and the little stories you would share with us but even I'm crying rn, he sounds like such a sweet and silly cat ;w;

I'm glad that when his time was up, he got to leave our world in the company of his best friend ;w;

meow-hug

Hopefully he's with biggs now, I will remember them both ;w;

I was wondering if @WhyEssEff@hexbear.net could use this picture of him and make him an emoji for the site? We should have a hexbear pets pantheon, including Comrade Sasha from @happybadger@hexbear.net and Comrade Bailey from @corgiwithalaptop@hexbear.net

Will look into it—most likely after my semester ends cuddle

Thanks comrade, I think it would be great to memorialize him on here since everyone loved his pictures.
