This post is in honor of Leroy the cat. Leroy was a very persnickety pussy cat!! He had an attitude and wasn't afraid to let anyone know it. Your only job as a human on this earth was to pet him, rub his belly, to scratch behind his ears and underneath his chin.
And gosh forbid if his food wasn't to his liking!! His poor owner (Gay) had to go run out and buy how many different kinds of cat food because poor Leroy had gone on strike food wise until he had better food, at least in his opinion. His water? It wasn't drunk out of the water dish.....it had to be out of the humidifier! Can you see why I'm saying he had an attitude? :-D
Unfortunately, Leroy had became sick. After a weekend of tests at the animal hospital, it was determined he had a tumor. The next day at home, the stress of being in the hospital was too much for him and he lost the use of his back legs and then his bowels. At that time Gay had to make the tough decision to put him down because poor Leroy was just suffering too much. Oh man....... The staff at the Marta Loop Veterinary Centre were excellent. The way they treated us....I can't put into words. Leroy was treated with the respect he deserved.
Leroy: I miss you!! Everytime I go into your house its much too quiet without you there. I miss calling you a spoiled brat. I miss you meowing at me because I didn't bend down fast enough to scratch you behind your ears. I miss you giving me crap because I would be too busy talking to your owner and not rubbing your belly or petting you. I miss me and Gay talking about you and your idiosyncrasies and you talking back at us.
I hope you are enjoying your meals on wheels up in heaven!
I love you Leroy
