Our beloved cat, Courageous, finally succumbed to FIV this morning at around 6:30. She had been steadily weakening for the last week or so, but we believe that she was in little or no pain until she finally died of anemia.

I hope to be able to write more about her over the next few days. She was a superb cat and we will all miss her terribly.

I'm so sorry! Your household has been hit with a tremendous amount of grief this summer. It's like an Italian opera -- and every Italian opera seems to contain the word, "curaggio!" (which I'm probably misspelling but what I mean is the Italian word for "courage").

May peace and happiness be with you and yours for the remainder of the year and beyond.

I'm sorry for your loss of your feline friend. They find a little place in our hearts to call their own, and leave an empty space when they go.

Y'all gave her a much longer and happier life than she'd have had otherwise.

This immediately makes me wonder how I'll react to Skippy's eventual demise, and to realize I only have a glimmer of an idea of how you feel right now. My sympathies and condolences.

I was devastated to hear of Courageous's death. She was a special cat--and so lucky to have the three of you take care of her through her life and illness. May you take comfort in the love you showed for her and in her love for you. Hugs to you all.

I'm so sorry about Courageous. I know how much you all love her and what good care you took of her. She was a happy kitty because of you.

...as is the Sparrow, who thought Courageous as much a part of the Castle as Nellorat, Supergee and Womzilla.

She will be missed. Best to you.

Courage, chers Montagnards!

I was privileged to have met Courageous on more then one occasion.
Truly a fine cat.
Also, a very lucky one.
I have often said that our pets lead shorter but wonderful lives. However, I realize that is contingent upon who it lives with.
I can say, that in all honesty, this is one cat that hit the jackpot with the three of you.
You did great honor to her during her lifetime, and even in your grief, you should be proud of yourselves.
