Thank you for sharing Mr. Firdusi's story with us all. Isn't it fascinating to watch their personalities develop over the years? We subscribed to the same naming philosophy with our Mr. Pigeon. He truly named himself. We tacked the Mr. on the front since he was always dressed in spats, much like Mr. Firdusi. (Plus, really, how much dignity can a cat named Pigeon have? Gotta at least make it formal.)<BR/><BR/>If your Mr. F should find himself in the same section of Kitty Valhalla that our Mr. P is in, perhaps they could enjoy some time together, stealing food off of tables or playing underneath a fitted sheet.<BR/><BR/>Craftymouse and DandelionAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21900544.post-91449992857935580552007-08-28T03:47:00.000-07:002007-08-28T03:47:00.000-07:00I'm so sorry to hear about your cat!

Maybe his spirit has been reincarnated into our new cat, Sylvester, who looks exactly like Mr. F, and (suddenly as of yesterday) has many of the same unusual attributes you mention. Sylvester came into our life about two weeks ago as a stray, who ended up being already neutered and well behaved indoors (even though he REALLY wants to go back outside). Starting yesterday, he loves to stare down our other cat, Kitty, who is 14 and is a little put off that a young 'un has decided to take over the house. It will be interesting to see how Sylvester will mold his place in the household!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21900544.post-37405782785031940822007-08-28T00:57:00.000-07:002007-08-28T00:57:00.000-07:00SO very sorry for your loss.
