Rikki Tikki Tavi, one beloved, old, creaky cat.

We'll miss you.


He lived to be almost twenty, and he went peacefully and without pain. Mama got to stay up with him last night, everyone got to pet him and say goodbye. She took him to the vet this morning because he'd been severely dehydrated and was having some other problems, and ended up having him put down.

Last of three cats, always the momma's cat, well loved. He held out until Mom and Shadowbat got back from their trip, bless him.


Yesterday and today are days full of sad. Zee went home last night (with every intent of returning to stay, however), Rikki's gone. Mama has a sad worst of all, because he really was her cat, and I worry about her. ♥ I don't think it's quite sunk in all the way for me yet, or maybe I'm just all cried out right now...

I'm gonna go see if I can add another hour of sleep while my laundry's going. I'm sure I'll do my crying later.
