Camera Critters ~ 32


This is Jack. Can you tell he wanted my attention?

He loves having his belly rubbed.

Unfortunately, we had to put down one of our other cats, Bob. I am pretty sure that someone poisoned him. A couple of weeks ago, he smelled like gasoline for a few days, but was otherwise okay. Then he started losing his hair on his legs, but was still acting okay. We just assumed he was irritated from the gas. Then a few days ago, he started losing weight, rapidly. And he started drooling constantly. So today we took him to be put to sleep. There was nothing else to do. I feel so bad that we didn't do something the first day, but other than smelling like gas, he was fine. I just hope that if he was poisoned, whoever did it leaves Jack and Spice alone.

To participate, go here.

Cute cat! He looks so much like our cat here at home, Mimi. :)
And oh, whoever poisoned your other cat should back off.

Oh, I'm so sorry for your loss of Bob! He may have drank something from the car and it may not have been an intentional poisoning. I hope not anyway. It may have been anti-freeze if he smelled like gasoline.

Jack is adorable!!

Jack is a little doll. There is a special place in hell for animal killers. I just know it.

Hi Jenn, he is obviously asking for your attention. I checked out your Bob's link and i pity him. May the one who poisoned him will be poisoned back too. Poor Bob...but i know he rests well now.

Hugss to Jack. We got two feline pets down here and 2 other still very babies ones. Hope they won't die.
