My heart is shattered. Samwise came to us in 2005, young adult male cat, neutered and very friendly. Never knew where he came from, he just showed up at our bakery one day me never left. He and my husband formed a very, very close bond, he was definitely his cat. When we closed the bakery and moved in 2010, I was adamant that he was coming too, and for the first several months we kept him in, but, after that, he was miserable if you made him stay in all the time, he loved to be outdoors, hunting and catching mice, moles, rats and bunnies. But, he loved to be in at night, slept in the bed with us, something none of our other cats was allowed to do. Last night, he slept with us for the last time, because he crossed the hwy one time too many and was hit by a car. Meowmy and daddy will miss you sweet boy, I will always love you!

Oh no. How sad! 
  I'm so sorry for your loss. You gave Samwise a happy life since you found him, and what a gift it was for him to develop such a close bond with your husband.

Rest in peace, sweet boy.

That's so sad! But don't let it beat yourself up because a lot of people have been through the same thing.

I'm so sorry to hear that, Cindy. My condolences to you and Charlie. This has been a bad year for longtime members and their cats. RIP, Samwise.

I know how hard it is to know their life was ended by a car, my sweet Chrissy was killed that way too. Know in your heart he knew he was loved and loved you very much in return. Please accept my condolences, I'll pray for you both. RIP beautiful Samwise!
