You know how it goes, right? You're busy doing things or posting stuff online and you don't pay really close attention at the quietness. Usually Meetzee is walking around looking for one thing or another or just being annoying by enticing Roscoe to chase her. I really didn't pay much attention to the calm morning then it dawned on me, it was too quiet. I know she was walking around overnight cuz she followed me into the bathroom when I had to go but she didn't say anything, usually she'd meow or something. When I called for her to come she didn't show up, that's when I knew I had to look for her. Mom's kitty found a hiding place and passed away sometime this morning. She had a long life. She was somewhere between 17 and 19 years old and spent most of her life happily living with mom and had a wonderful backyard in the daytime and indoors with mom at night then in 2016 after mom passed I brought her here and she along with her buddy Max lived out their lives in my home. Hopefully she's on that side of the rainbow with Max and Mom, I know that's where she wanted to be. R.I.P. Meetzee.

@rebelann You did the very best you could. From were I sit, you are/were an excellent Mom to all of them. The Dude has taken second fiddle to Brendel since day one. That is the only what it works. But he does not go without anything.

Sorry about your loss, 18 is standard for most cats so she had a nice long life. It's not fun finding them though.

@rebelann Cats are really good at hiding how they feel. And, when it's their time they usually do something to say 'goodbye'.

You're right, it was a little shocking cuz I really didn't think she was that bad off.

She did say goodbye and not just to me but also to Roscoe. I feel like I should have known.

Thank you. She was about 12 or 13 when mom passed away and then I brought her here which did not make her very happy but at least I gave her a safe place to live out her life.

Did she have plenty of water to drink? Maybe she was looking for some water, she was very old! Precious girl, she was a sweetheart:) Now Meetzee is with Kobe, my sweet boy!

Yes, she had plenty of water and food, she was just old and was probably missing mom and max. She wasn't really all that happy here but there wasn't much I could do about that.

Oh poor Meetze, but as you said it seems she lived a good long life. I think cats that live a long time, are pretty content with their lot in life...kind of like people.

I think she was to some extent but me bringing her here was not easy for her after all those years living with mom and having a beautiful backyard at her disposal.

She did disappear sometime this morning but I didn't notice until it was quiet for too long. She was a vocal girl and I have to admit I will miss that.

Yes, I think you're right about that. It did seem odd the other day when she napped with me and Roscoe. I think she was saying goodbye only I didn't get it.

Oh @rebelann . . . I am so sorry about Meetzee and I regret not seeing this post sooner. I remember you said she was an older cat (even though she totally does not look like it). I believe she is with Max and your Mom now .
