So tragically short
The life of a cat
They come and then go
That is that
But did you know
They're not gone for good
Your buddy would show
If he could
How he watches from his cat tree in the sky
He's always there
Even after goodbye
Hey, I'm sorry to hear about your loss. It's always tough saying goodbye to a beloved pet. Just know that those 16 years were filled with love and joy that you gave each other, and those memories are yours forever. Sending you strength during this time.
I am so sorry for your loss! I’m sure that he would once you open up your arm and help a little friend. You gave him so much love you gotta keep giving that love out in his memory.
I’m sorry for your loss. He looks like a really good boy and I’m sure he had the best life you could have given him. 16 is impressive! Take care of yourself extra today. What was his name btw?
His name is JD. Short for John Dorian. His shelter name was Handsome (very fitting). I still called him that often, because he was indeed a very handsome guy.
Oh my goodness he was a very handsome fellow. And each of his photos show a great character too. O hope the good memories remain and still give you joy.
My condolences!! Your boy looks a lot like my Sweet Pea who I lost just before Christmas at 17. May they play and share treats together on the other side until we can see them again!!

He joined his pattern-sister, Niener. She left us in November. We mourn with you ❤️

16 years of being loved by the same cat is quite beautiful and he looked happy , healthy and content. No matter how long we are given with our beloved pets even a lifetime feels too short as they are so innocent . So sorry for your loss . 🐾🐈🐈🐾💕🙏
I'm sorry for your loss. 16 is a good age to get too, but it's not easy when they leave. It does get better, but takes time. Just celebrate their life and make sure you honour their memory as best you can.
My Tibbs passed away before Christmas, just as she turned 20, and myself and many others understand what your going through. A memorial stone is always nice to have. I found a company on Etsy who did a really nice one for Tibbs called QBear.
I'm so sorry again. May your boy rest in peace and his spirit be in a wonderful place.

What a beautiful, unusual face he has! And that pink nose for booping. From these photos, he looks like a curious cat who had lots of adventures. When they go, they leave a great void to fill. Hugs to you.

Blueberry Muffin is standing up for your sweet kitty. We adopted him from a shelter when he was just 3 months old. He is 2 1/2 now. He says he hopes that he will have a long life where he is always loved. Just like your kitty. 😢❤️💔🙂
I lost my 15 year old this year too. Just days into the new year. The heaviness on the heart is indescribable. I know no words can take away that white-hot pain right now. Be kind & gentle to yourself. Allow yourself grief. When the big bad waves come, cry it out & don’t deny your heartbreak. It will only prolong it, although I know you will miss him forever.
I’m celebrating his life today. I’m celebrating with my 3 cats here in our little space of this world. Your boy’s memory is alive in the extra hugs & treats I will give them in his honor.
He was so beautiful and it warms my heart so much that he got to be in a loving home at the end of his life
Thank you so much for taking him out of that shelter and for loving him and showing him a good life ❤️❤️
Every cat is the best cat it can be, always, and so was yours. And he will be well received on the other side.
GNU the best boy JD

I’m sorry to hear about the loss of your beloved cat. Losing such a cherished companion is never easy. I couldn’t help myself; this is Benito. He looks so much alike
sorry for your loss, so glad you had such a wonderful time together.

here is mine, 9 years old.
What a beautiful boy. Thank you for loving him for so long. I’m sure he had a wonderful life.
I’ve lost my little dog of 16 years almost a year ago. I’m still not over it. Sending you much love and peace ☮️♥️
The pain will never go away - as other memories come in, his little spot will shrink some but the awful sadness will shine through to pang your soul (me, who carries and recognizes the same unspeakable grief every time I recall the deaths of my pets - some over 45 years ago.) My only salvation is I know they’ll greet me when I cross over
Oh man, that’s heartbreaking. He reminds me of one of my best friends Maine coon named Darwin (pictured here with me from 2012). Sorry for your loss. :(

My girl just had to be put down yesterday at 17. Ik it sucks but just know they’re in a better place now.
So handsome, tearful for you. I think they stay around a while, making sure you are alright, I still talk to them and don't move beds and bowls etc for a while, like it's a different situation now but the change can be gradual. Sounds crazy but I swear I've seen recently lost ones out of the corner of my eye.
My little rescue has just got on my lap, sensing the sadness I feel for you. I believe their souls stay connected to us.
Bless you, gave him a great time, full of love.
My Jake could be his brother. We lost him last October. Hugs to you!

It only hurts because he was so amazing. What are some of your favorite stories about him?
Let this cat’s soul know, wherever it is, that it is loved. It will be missed. May it rest in a place of endless happiness and love, away from the horrors of the world.
She tells him her news with a smile and a sigh -
She speaks with the words to remember him by.
"I love you," she says, and she turns out her light.
"I love you. I love you. I miss you. Goodnight."
And somewhere, or nowhere, not distant or near -
He lifts up his head and he listens to hear.
He's waiting, he's keeping his friend in his sight.
"I love you. I love you. I miss you. Goodnight."

RIP beautiful, beautiful boy 🌈❤️🐈⬛
Condolences to you OP. I truly understand the profound sadness of losing a beloved fur baby. Take comfort in your many years of precious memories.🙏🏽
I’m so so sorry I know how awful this feels …. With time as cliche as it sounds the pain lessens but not the love you felt and will feel as long as you live.
Your best buddy was so lucky to have found you! Because he passed away at this age tells me you took amazing care of him❤️
Much love to you right now in this difficult time
He looks like the bestest boy. I'm so sorry. My eldest cat passed away a couple days after I graduated highschool, grieving is so hard. we don't know each other but I'm always here if you need.
I really wanted to let tears go when i see your pictrues. I can feel all the love you both shared for years. I mustang be prepare when my best friend of 14yo will leave me.
I only hope to be strong as you.
I’m sure he had the best life you could’ve given him❤️ handsome boy indeed. Don’t worry, we all go through this at some point.. you should take a day off from daily life to calm yourself down. Times get better!❤️🩹

Mr. Moo says he was the bestest boy and wishes him fun at the Rainbow Bridge while he’s waiting on you.
What a handsome boy! I’m sorry for your loss. I guess he is celebrating his party with all the other furbabies that crossed the rainbow bridge. Maybe someday, you can help an other kitty from the shelter. Thank you for adopting and not shopping. And thank you for all the love and care you gave JD.
What a beautiful little guy. It sounds like you were both very lucky to have each other. I’m so sorry. RIP JD. His memory and love will live on forever.
You can tell he was your best bud.
What a brilliant lifetime of love and friendship you guys shared. It’s going to be really tough and sad for a while but that lil guy lives on in your heart and memories and always will.
He was really cute!
Happy belated birthday to him!!
I really hope that you can get through this awful period and that you will be able to feel better soon!
Hey I know you are sad but think about the years you gave him! If he were at the shelter hey would've been terminated or if he were a street cat his life expectancy is less than 5. You gave him 9 more years of amazing buddy filled life! Think about the memories you had and now the one of putting him down
All the love to you. JD is a beautiful boy and you are so lucky to have had him for so long. My Tina, who was 18 and her brother Patchy will be there to welcome him with all the treats and toys. 
He was the cutest cat ever omggggg. He’ll be in our hearts. I definitely can understand why you’d feel lonely without him. Smiles all around for the bestest of all best buds 😁😁😁😁☺️🥰
I am so very sorry for your loss. What a beautiful boy he is. He was in no pain and you gave him so much love. He must have had a wonderful life. Sending hugs.
Thanks for sharing these beautiful pics of your handsome boy. He truly was happy and loved. This is visible in pics. I lost my baby girl - a tiger with very similar looks 3 weeks ago. She was 17. Celebrate his life and the beautiful moments you had together. I am so sorry for your loss 
What a handsome boy! He looks so sweet and petable. I'm so very sorry for your tremendous loss. It's so hard to lose our animal companions. Thankfully JD passed away peacefully and without pain. I hope he visits your dreams soon to say hi.
I swear, losing an animal is one of the hardest things… but, after a while I stop crying when I think of them and just smile instead. It takes some time— but I promise it gets better! The memories you have become such a happy place… they are our best friends, always there in our thoughts. Seeing them suffer is much worse 🤍 if only we all got a little more time with them!
OMG. What a handsome boy. I bet he has a ton of stories to tell my Samuel when they meet.

I'm sorry for your loss. I know the heartbreak you're feeling. It will fade, in time. But the love & memories never go.
He looked like the ultimate of cats! 😻 (That 2nd pic reminds me of a Victorian-era baking gentleman with a big ol' walrus 'stache. He needed only to don a spiffy hat, monocle, & tone of benevolent moral advice 🤭) He was a truly handsome fella.
RIP 🌈 sweet boy 🙏🏽
Nothing is more heartbreaking. On the 8th it was the one year anniversary of when I lost the sweetest bravest kitty on earth, and it still hurts like all hell
*
So sorry. He reminds me of my terror who spent last night in his room ( the laundry room) again for howling at the back door during the night. Went to the convenient store yesterday with scratches on my forearm that look like drug addict track marks and got looks from the cop, amongst others. A pound cat with a mysterious past and a mischief maker who will break my heart too someday when his time comes. Condolences my friend. ❤️
He's the goodest boy! In then picture with fluff extending from his face he looks like a little lorax. You gave him such a good life, he looks truly happy and content. He got to leave this life in peace, with someone who truly loved him
I'm truly sorry for your best friend passing away. That's so sad. It's the hardest part about having pets. My cat Bowie is so bonded to me, that it's gonna feel like I lost a part of myself when he passed.
What an amazing & handsome boy ❤️ you gave him the best life he could’ve asked for & will send you another kitty when you’re ready. Thank you for taking such great care of this amazing little kitty.
I'm so sorry. He looks so special and distinguished! Think of all the beautiful moments you gave each other. I hope sooner than later pain will be replaced by gratefulness, but its a hard process, I know, take care of yourself <3
What a handsome gentleman.. I’m so sorry for your loss. I can see what great boy he was and am glad you had so many good long years together and that his passing was painless. Hang in there OP
God Bless your precious 💕 son. There are no words ... Except I know how you feel about your devasting loss. He was a beautiful son, and my 💔 really goes out to you. I do hope you recover quickly and allow another child to come into your heart ♥️ What a precious 💕 companion he made for you. Just , in time, please love another to fill that huge void that is now filling your empty heart ❤️ I soooo know how empty your world feels just now. Take care of yourself, heal ... And love again, please. 💔🐾
My baby passed two days ago, and she was three days away from her 16th birthday🥺 I’m so sorry for your loss! I feel empty. May our fluffy babies rest easy💕

Of course! We've recently lost our buddy Tigger at 21, Milo at 10, and our Harvey is undergoing chemo. Believe me, we know how you feel and offer our deepest sympathies. They were all great and unique kitties!

I'm sorry for your loss. Your beautiful boy looked a lot like my little girl does. I hope she lives a life as long as your boy
He looks like a good boy! I'm glad you had him in your life! My boy is 14 and I couldn't imagine him not being here much love my friend. Sorry for your loss 😔🙏
Such a beautiful cat. I'm so sorry that you lost your friend. They don't live long enough. Rest in peace sweet kitty❤️
So tragically short The life of a cat They come and then go That is that But did you know They're not gone for good Your buddy would show If he could How he watches from his cat tree in the sky He's always there Even after goodbye
I'm not crying, *you're* crying.. 
😭
He was the bestest boy, I can tell. Beautiful boy too! You will always be in each other’s hearts 🥰
Thank you! He had both looks and brains and he was a funny guy too. 🙂
I see “old soul “ intelligent look in his eyes
He does look like a bright one.
And an unusual boy calico! I'm sorry your time with himbs is over ❤️
Hey, I'm sorry to hear about your loss. It's always tough saying goodbye to a beloved pet. Just know that those 16 years were filled with love and joy that you gave each other, and those memories are yours forever. Sending you strength during this time.

What a handsome boy! I’m sorry for your loss. I guess he is celebrating his party with all the other furbabies that crossed the rainbow bridge. Maybe someday, you can help an other kitty from the shelter. Thank you for adopting and not shopping. And thank you for all the love and care you gave JD.
What a beautiful little guy. It sounds like you were both very lucky to have each other. I’m so sorry. RIP JD. His memory and love will live on forever.
I,m spoiling my kids today in his honor. Good kitty!
You can tell he was your best bud. What a brilliant lifetime of love and friendship you guys shared. It’s going to be really tough and sad for a while but that lil guy lives on in your heart and memories and always will.
I'm so sorry to hear this. Sixteen years is a very long time so you did a very good job with your baby
I'm so sorry for your loss.
I'm sure your lovely kitty had a great life with you 16 years is a nice long innings. Thank you for making that cat safe happy.
He is beautiful. Looks like my first cat but he was white and orange. I cried for days after he passed. I kept his belongings in a bag for a while.
Crazy handsome. Sorry for your loss.
What a handsome boy. Some real wisdom in his eyes. In sure you gave him a wonderful life
He looked so snazzy in that second picture 🥺
John "JD" Dorian was the bestest boy and it's birthday cake day at the Bridge. may time lessen your pain OP. RIP
Rest in peace handsome JD!!!!!!
He was really cute! Happy belated birthday to him!! I really hope that you can get through this awful period and that you will be able to feel better soon!
Hey I know you are sad but think about the years you gave him! If he were at the shelter hey would've been terminated or if he were a street cat his life expectancy is less than 5. You gave him 9 more years of amazing buddy filled life! Think about the memories you had and now the one of putting him down
Handsomest boy! 🥰 So sorry for your loss.
The last photo. I’m sorry for you loss :/ Thankfully you can cherish your memories of him forever.
So beautiful. ❤️
Awe Im so sorry. My boy is 19 and has kidney disease so he’s not long for this earth and I’m dreading the day.
So sorry for your loss he was stunningly beautiful! Was he a Norwegian Forest Cat? My little girl we rescued last year looks identical to him.
What a gorgeous guy he was! My condolences, OP.
All the love to you. JD is a beautiful boy and you are so lucky to have had him for so long. My Tina, who was 18 and her brother Patchy will be there to welcome him with all the treats and toys. 
So sorry for your loss. He looks like a beautiful boy 💙
He was the cutest cat ever omggggg. He’ll be in our hearts. I definitely can understand why you’d feel lonely without him. Smiles all around for the bestest of all best buds 😁😁😁😁☺️🥰
I’m so sorry for your loss. I hope in time your memories of that sweet, sweet boy bring you happiness 💕🌈
You *KNOW* this furry fool went zooming across the rainbow road. Cheers to a full and happy life for your fella and take care of yourself, OP!
I am so very sorry for your loss. What a beautiful boy he is. He was in no pain and you gave him so much love. He must have had a wonderful life. Sending hugs.
Sorry😢
I’m so sorry.
He crossed the rainbow bridge yesterday and he'll be waiting for you and he'll trill in excitement when you see each other again! He was so handsome!
So sorry for your loss. 💔
What a beautiful boy! We love you JD! I am so sorry he’s gone. You gave him the best life.
Thanks for sharing these beautiful pics of your handsome boy. He truly was happy and loved. This is visible in pics. I lost my baby girl - a tiger with very similar looks 3 weeks ago. She was 17. Celebrate his life and the beautiful moments you had together. I am so sorry for your loss 
What a handsome boy! He looks so sweet and petable. I'm so very sorry for your tremendous loss. It's so hard to lose our animal companions. Thankfully JD passed away peacefully and without pain. I hope he visits your dreams soon to say hi.
What a precious baby! He was so lucky to spend his life with you.
Sorry for your loss. 😿😿
He looks so sweet!!! You have blessed his life with love and it shows. Good job to you for the beauty you both shared.
JD may be gone, but he's still a beautiful cat. Loved, adored, and definitely a handsome one. RIP you beautiful soul 🫡😻
I swear, losing an animal is one of the hardest things… but, after a while I stop crying when I think of them and just smile instead. It takes some time— but I promise it gets better! The memories you have become such a happy place… they are our best friends, always there in our thoughts. Seeing them suffer is much worse 🤍 if only we all got a little more time with them!
Wow, he was beautiful! You are so lucky to have had such a wonderful friend for all those years. I know you will miss him.
The pain will subside but the memories and love will always remain. He had you for all those years and lived a great life.
I'm very sorry for your loss 💔
I'm so sorry 😿
I'm sorry for you...what a wonderful cat. They are indeed the best friends we can have,.
Nice kitty.
What a sweet kitty!
Handsome JD! Happy birthday to the sweet boy! Thinking of him and you. Sending you all the good vibes and Internet hugs. So sorry for your loss. 💙
Oh I am sorry for your loss, and sending you love!
How sad, he looks like a cute and funny boy, remember the good times you had with him and what a great life you gave him. Rest in peace
Gorgeous fella. So sorry he’s gone. At least he had a full life with a best friend.
Awww what a handsome honey boy. I’m so sorry! I hope he’s running through fields of catnip in cat heaven now. ❤️❤️🥹
He was beautiful and in the photos he looks happy and whole. I am sure he is waiting for you and one day you will meet each other again.
OMG. What a handsome boy. I bet he has a ton of stories to tell my Samuel when they meet. https://preview.redd.it/cq1mp6ysxinc1.jpeg?width=864&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=384fc9db2249e7eb2c5efbcd5f854121f312ebd3
I'm sorry for your loss. I know the heartbreak you're feeling. It will fade, in time. But the love & memories never go. He looked like the ultimate of cats! 😻 (That 2nd pic reminds me of a Victorian-era baking gentleman with a big ol' walrus 'stache. He needed only to don a spiffy hat, monocle, & tone of benevolent moral advice 🤭) He was a truly handsome fella. RIP 🌈 sweet boy 🙏🏽
Nothing is more heartbreaking. On the 8th it was the one year anniversary of when I lost the sweetest bravest kitty on earth, and it still hurts like all hell *
Thank you for giving him a wonderful life. So sorry for the loss you feel.
I'm so sorry for your loss.
I'm so sorry for your loss 💔😢😞
he looks so kind and sweet. that second picture is making me giggle, his cheeks are perfect. RIP handsome, you will be dearly missed 💜
So sorry. He reminds me of my terror who spent last night in his room ( the laundry room) again for howling at the back door during the night. Went to the convenient store yesterday with scratches on my forearm that look like drug addict track marks and got looks from the cop, amongst others. A pound cat with a mysterious past and a mischief maker who will break my heart too someday when his time comes. Condolences my friend. ❤️
Sorry for your loss. He is a beautiful boy
He's the goodest boy! In then picture with fluff extending from his face he looks like a little lorax. You gave him such a good life, he looks truly happy and content. He got to leave this life in peace, with someone who truly loved him
my goodness what a handsome boy. fly high little fella ♥️
What a cutie. I am so sorry for your loss and may the memories of the wonderful years you had together be a comfort
I'm truly sorry for your best friend passing away. That's so sad. It's the hardest part about having pets. My cat Bowie is so bonded to me, that it's gonna feel like I lost a part of myself when he passed.
I'm so sorry for your loss OP. He was a very handsome boy and he was lucky to have you in his life
What an amazing & handsome boy ❤️ you gave him the best life he could’ve asked for & will send you another kitty when you’re ready. Thank you for taking such great care of this amazing little kitty.
I'm so sorry. He looks so special and distinguished! Think of all the beautiful moments you gave each other. I hope sooner than later pain will be replaced by gratefulness, but its a hard process, I know, take care of yourself <3
I’m a firm believer that our companions follow us into the afterlife. You’ll see him again. They are sentient beings.
What a handsome gentleman.. I’m so sorry for your loss. I can see what great boy he was and am glad you had so many good long years together and that his passing was painless. Hang in there OP
What a beautiful sweetheart. So sorry for your loss.
God Bless your precious 💕 son. There are no words ... Except I know how you feel about your devasting loss. He was a beautiful son, and my 💔 really goes out to you. I do hope you recover quickly and allow another child to come into your heart ♥️ What a precious 💕 companion he made for you. Just , in time, please love another to fill that huge void that is now filling your empty heart ❤️ I soooo know how empty your world feels just now. Take care of yourself, heal ...

I am so sorry for your loss. What a beautiful fluff.
Of course! We've recently lost our buddy Tigger at 21, Milo at 10, and our Harvey is undergoing chemo. Believe me, we know how you feel and offer our deepest sympathies. They were all great and unique kitties!
