Snoops here. I have some very sad news. Wednesday night, Kommando Kitty unexpectedly went over the Rainbow Bridge. She was fine the night before, cuddling with Mom. But when Mom went to get her for breakfast, she was gone. She was eleven years old and seemed to be in good health.
I remember when she moved in. She tried to jump in the window, but missed and ended up in the window well. A utility worker got her out, but then she did the same thing again. I had just been separated from my kittens at the shelter a few weeks earlier, and she was only four weeks old. I adopted her and taught her how to be a cat.
She didn’t learn everything. She never learned how to jump. And she couldn’t hiss. When she was little, she could pass between the balusters on the staircase upstairs. When she got older, she never understood why she couldn’t keep doing it. But she was the sweetest cat anyone had every met.
I was “Dad’s” cat, and she was “Mom’s” cat. Mom’s pretty devastated right now. After Dad died (exactly five years before Kommando), the three of us sat on the sofa every night when Mom couldn’t sleep. One of us on each side of her. So I just it’s just Mom and me now.
She really didn’t take to Sgt Stripes or the new cats. She was afraid they were going to eat her. I needed to protect her. She was my little buddy.
We’re all going to miss her a lot.
😿
I am so so sorry for your loss. I will miss her posts. You are all in my prayers. God bless. She was beautiful.
Thank you. Snoops is debating about whether to go solo or try to train Sgt Stripes
It’s a heavy loss, I wish them both well.
Thank you
It is a heartbreaking time. Those of us who love Snoops, Commando and Sgt. Stripes grieve with you. Commando remained innocent all her blessed life, didn’t she?
She saw glowing from the Bridge one evening, and softly padded over to see what that beauty was. She was transfixed, and wanted to enjoy the warmth and peace with its soft beauty longer. She forgot to look back toward home and her family then, and wandered farther. But her love was safely stored in your heart. It remains.
What a beautiful image. And it does sound like Kommando. Thank you!
Oh no… I’m so sorry to read this sad and painful news about Kommando Kitty. Saying goodbye to a furry friend is always so hard. I hope you can find some comfort in the beautiful memories of a beautiful cat. Sending you hugs.
Thank you. It is incredibly hard.
We are so sorry to hear this, it seems no age at all. But her new life, when her essence/soul finds a new body, will be a good one, I’m sure.
Sending lots of positive and comforting vibes to you all.
ERin & Mrs H

Thank you for your kind words and thoughts
You are undertaking the long journey through grief. While others may share that grief we all walk it alone. There are no right or wrong paths, no proper way to carry oneself, no set amount of time to complete it. Some steps will come easier than others. There will be rogue waves of grief that you won’t see coming, and knock you back days. But you will come through it. If you get lost let us know. We have been through it before and we might be able to help you find the way out.
Thank you for your kind words

It seems all kinds of wrong to ‘like’ this post. We’re so sorry to hear yet another beloved and precious looking pet has earned their wings. Heartfelt thoughts of comfort being sent to you all. 💔
Know what you mean about “liking”. I’m always torn about it. Thank you for your kind words
❤️🩹
We are so sorry for your loss. Sending hugs and purrs to you.
Thank you for your wishes.
Oh, sadness. We didn’t know your beautiful, sweet companion, but we read your story and are so, so sad for you. What a truly lovely and kind-looking kitty. She must have been a treasure to love every day. Kitties decide to go and then we are helpless. Love to your family
Aww. Thank you for your kind words. We miss her very much,
What a shock to not know she was failing and suddenly discover that she’d gone. A lovely tribute to a cherished fur-baby. She will be missed a lot, I’m sure, by her “people” and by her humans.
Thank you. We are still sad
