RIP Bonham

Aunt Ally found Bonham passed away this morning. He got some breakfast at six and she found him around nine. We don't know what happened - of course, we don't know much about Bonham. We do think he was older, and he may have been dumped because he was sick. We never could figure out why someone would dump him - he was such a sweet cat and he was very loving. We only had him for eight months, but we loved him and we're all sad and going to miss him. RIP Bonham Leonidas.

  2. Oh no, I am so very sorry! No matter how short a time they are with us it still hurts so much when they have to leave. Take comfort in knowing you made his last 8 months happy and loved.

    1. It really is. Momma had a similar thing happen to her years ago with a cat she adopted who was at her apartment complex - my predecessor Charlie. She doesn't seem to have such good luck when trying to rescue abandoned cats.

    So sudden - such a shock!
    Fly free, Bonham. You were much loved during your last few months with the Lone Star Cats. Now you will watch over them from the endless fields beyond the Rainbow Bridge, safe in the Loving Paw of the Great Cat in the Sky. And you will all meet again one day.

  31. We read on DashKitten about Bonham's passing and wanted to stop by and say how sorry we are he passed. May he run free scampering those beautiful fields at the Rainbow Bridge. Losing a pet hurts so deeply; they sure take a piece of our hearts with them. Sending hugs...
