Garage Cat Sam (He was big on Mopars - Darts in particular.)

I really didn’t know where to post this, but he was a garage cat. I have never really been a big fan of cats, but I grew to love this cat. He was a big hunter and kept my garage clear of any kind of vermin. Unfortunately, on Friday, I had to put him down. The vet said more than likely, he’d been bit by snake. As my wife was trying to move him at 4 AM on Thursday he bit her as he was in pain. She is actually in the hospital and it’s going to have an operation on Sunday.. that’s not the reason he was euthanized. Despite the effort from the Vet his temperature was rising and he was in pain. I cried like a baby, which is not my normal go to. He was a faithful friend and will be greatly missed.

Sorry for your loss! I was never really a cat person either, until my wife talked me into keeping a kitten from our daughter in law. Like you, that darn cat grew on me and I really came to love her. That was nearly 19 yrs ago. She passed away 3 yrs ago with cancer, but we had her for 16 good years, and like you, I cried like a baby!
