Our beautiful, affectionate, vocal, cuddly boy. The great Captain Tiptoes has crossed the rainbow bridge.
I am literally heartbroken. I can’t believe he won’t be laying on my lap while I decide what to not watch on TV. Or stealing milk from the kids cereal when he thinks nobody is looking.
He was such a cat.

He’s gone.

@TheLongRider I do. He gave high fives for treats and played fetch. The first night we brought him home from the shelter he lay between myself and DH and purred so loudly he kept us awake. He used to perform cat CPR by jumping on my chest in the middle of the night. He loved both the kids and never ever swiped or hissed or spat.
I hope I can be so lucky to have another cat that we love half as much as we love him.
He truly was a captain amongst cats.

I'm so sorry for the loss of your beautiful boy OP, it seems to be a week for it, my cat and my friends cat both tuxedos have gone this week too.
It's just so painful, he looks full of character.
Until you meet again xxxxxxx

I'm so sorry Flowers.

You can never replace a cat but, in time, you can find a new cat to love in a new way.

I'm so sorry. My condolences to you and your family. Captain Tiptoes sounds wonderful Flowers
