What a beautiful cat, Alison. So many great years and always over too soon. Our boy kitty and beloved companion, Bob, was sadly lost in 2004 and we’d had him for 18 years. I can’t write much more, getting “leaky” as someone said before. By the by, thanks for much for your exquisite art and work.

I lost my best friend/black lab Smokey earlier this year. I totally understand. And I hope you feel better soon.

Aw, Alison. I know there’s really nothing I can say. When I lost my cat, there was nothing others could say that really mattered.

All my best

Haven’t checked in on Mo, et al, for quite a while now, and just saw the sad news about Julia. Just want to add my condolences to the list. I have a cat too,(or rather, I am retained by one) and someday I’ll be facing the same loss. I hope she has as long and happy a life as Julia did with you. And I hope that you will heal and move through your grief soon.

im so sorry to hear about your loss, i can empathize with you because ive had many many cats in my life and ive gone through each of their passings. sometimes i think that cats come back their spirit somehow always finds you in one way or another so im sure julia is still there leaving her invisible paw print of approval on your amazing work

What a beautiful tortoise-shell cat. She reminds me of my own, who is getting up there in years as well. I’m so sorry,Julia was gorgous and looks so loving.

I too have only just found your blog… but you have been an integral part of my life since 1984. Is the world full of 46 year old dykes living with late teenage cats? I’m so sorry about Julia… I have to go take some more pictures of Katy now…

I’ve only just now found your site (what a shame I’ve missed you all this time!).

You have my deepest condolences. My wife and I also lost an 18 year old cat this past year (and an 18 year old dog not long thereafter) so I completely get the loss and the gaping void.

What a blessing to have had her in your life and to have had your digital camera for the past 5 years to capture that. Deepest condolences.

I can’t read the responses or I’ll cry LIKE A LEAKY FAUCET. (I’m at work where weeping, while common, is discouraged.) I’m sorry for your loss. Julia was like a beautiful, happy kitty. I like the kitty-inna-bowl picture above.
