3664.0. "Puffer is gone" by HAMBND::CHAVIS (Beat the system, unplug the computer) Mon Jun 04 1990 10:33

	Last friday our Puffer died suddenly of a heart problem.  Puffer
	was a stray which we found in Marlboro last december.  He came
	running out from behind the garbage dumpster.   We brought him
	home and loved him.  He was a very well behaved animal and
	provided good companionship for our other four kitties.  

	According to my wife,  Puffer was eating then playing.  She
	went up stairs for a couple of minutes and when she came
	down stairs he was lying dead of the ground.   When we
	brought him to the vet,   she said that the most common
	reason for death in young cats is when the wall of the
	heart thickens and eventually does not allow the bloood to
	flow.   He probally lied down and went to sleep.   

	Not ever loosing a pet like this were taking it really badly.
	He was Michele favorite cat.   He will be a happy where he is
	now....Good bye Puffer.

    What an awful shock this must have been for you.  But at least he
    didn't suffer a long illness.
    
    Be brave; time will heal your sadness.
    
    Best wishes,

    How terrible.....and what a sad note.  He was lucky that he didn't
    suffer.  Here's hoping that time will heal your wounds.  Maybe a
    new kitty in the future?

    We're terribly sorry about Puffer.  I know that another cat is probably the
    last thing  you are thinking about now, but is there any chance that
    you could take in one of the two cats in note 3653 whose people are
    going to euthanize them?

Thanks for all the wishes...much appreciated..

re .8.  Karen,   we have 4 others kitties and probally wont replace puffer.

Puffer was an odd eye short hair...I have heard that the odd eye cats may
have health problems anyway such as deafness and other problems...who knows?

Thanks again to all.

3664.19Our thoughts are with youDEMON::INGALLSThu Jun 07 1990 13:147
    I agree with the person who wrote that the positive side of this is that
    Puffer had a good and loving home and family.  I'm sure he is in
    Kitty-Cat heaven rolling in the catnip.
    
    Our love and condolences . .

    You have our deepest sympathy....Times like these are so sad.  Please
    remember the good times you had with Puffer, they can be a ray of light
    sometimes.

    I also want to offer condolences.  A sudden loss like that is an
    awful shock.  I also want to say that Puffer probably had a longer
    life, and definitely a much happier life than he would have if he'd
    stayed outdoors.  I hope you can be a bit comforted by that thought.
    
    Puffer's name has been added to the Silver Lining Memorial list for
    Q4 FY90.  I hope that helps a bit.
      With sympathy,
      Nancy DC & the House o' Purrs
