Oh, poor Reuben. Glad you went to cheer him up though. :3: Not that cats ever seem particularly bothered about being called mean.

It's just not fair to say he "looks mean" because of his eye and his inability to tolerate a single brushing

kind of into it, really

Jerry didn't make it.

His numbers weren't too great after a couple of days, but they decided to give it a try this morning on the basis of 'If he can't eat then nothing else matters.'

As they started they discovered that he had bone cancer in his jaw and that there wasn't anything that could be done. Dad said that when he took Jerry from the emergency vet office to the normal one that Jerry was incredibly passive, a very unusual thing for the grumpy old man. As further treatment was impossible and he wouldn't be able to eat anyways, Dad decided that it would be best for him to not wake up again. The last time I saw him was in that box, but at least I got to see him one last time.

After the last dog died Jerry had a bit of a personality change. It was like he decided he would be the new dog in the house, at least in the regard of getting food. But of course he would do it the cat way. Whenever it was dinner time, or lunch time, or breakfast or whenever he would go and sit by someone who was eating. He wouldn't look at them, oh no, that's what dogs do. He would instead sit on his haunches with his back to you, a complete "I'm totally not begging" attitude befitting of him. He was only there for headscritches of course, but if you wanted to offer him something then that's just fine.

Later it even got to the point that whenever someone finished a plate he expected to get a pass at it. Likely he wouldn't try and of it, but he was going to sniff it and he would tolerate no exception to this rule. A finicky eater from the beginning, his tastes for food would be wildly inconsistent, even going from one person's plate to another. He had perfect cat senses for tuna, even from two floors away, and had an odd fascination with popcorn, even to the point of trying to steal some from people.

He was a remarkably hard cat to photograph, almost always turning about to make sure that no good picture of him could be taken. Combining that with my own horrible camera skills and there's very little pictures I have to remember him by.

This one is from happier times. Last Christmas my sister brought over a little bow tie that she got for her cat, but he didn't like it at all, removing it within minutes of her putting it on. Jerry, on the other hand, didn't even seem to notice it and it remained on him until she took it off upon leaving that night. His Christmas present was a bag of greenies and he was most satisfied with it.

Goodbye Jerry, you will be missed greatly.

He still looks like a boss doing it, that's what's weird. It's like Gordon Ramsay playing ping pong or Al Capone floating around with a pool noodle at the beach.

so wisconsin has mandated that thermostats cannot be set to higher than 68° in state buildings. now my office is goddamn freezing.

so i brought a space heater to warm it up. which works, except now the vent blasts cold air to BRING IT DOWN TO 68°.

that cat has things figured out.
