Saying Goodbye to my Sweet Onyx


Yesterday was so hard to say goodbye to my sweet Onyx.  I got him from the shelter when he was just two years old and I was lucky to have him in my life for 18 years.  Twenty years old is a long life for a cat and I like to think he had a very good life.  He was loved so much!!  He loved to be held and cuddle and he had such a strong purr.  I would hold him and he would lay his head on my shoulder and purr so loud--I will miss that.  He had so much personality and spunk!!  He was funny--he loved popcorn and Doritos and any time the can opener was going he would come running.  :-) 

Onyx was part of our family and he will be missed so very much.  

May you run free in the wildflower 
and always feel
the warmth of the sun.

1993-2013

We love you!!!

  2. What a beautiful tribute and what a beautiful cat! Our Jez turned 20 and is still going strong. My oldest adopted a kitty who had been dumped at her apartment complex (10 years earlier)-- we only knew Charlie for 1 year but he left his paw prints all over our hearts.

    Sending big cyber hugs for the loss of your sweet kitty...
