Hail Refurb 666 Also Dave just snuck up and snatched a piece of steak from Dr. FAUXTON's plate. The steak was sliced so it was maybe a 2oz piece but the little poo poo just rolled up and trotted off with it

I've finally done it. Read this entire goddamn thing. Took me 18 months off-and-on. At least most up to 2011-ish was able to be skipped due to broken waffleimages links. My contribution: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ygqNnLeAFM Him name Artemis. He came to live with me in 2008. In pure stereotypical cat fashion, I was the chosen one. My local shelter had a satellite location in a shopping center that was cats-only. Most of the cats (a few dozen) free-roamed while staff was present. There were beds and toys and cat trees and hidey-holes everywhere. It was indoor cat heaven, and pretty cool for human cat-ladies as well. One cat, though, was asleep in his closed cage. He was a stray from a local small town, estimated about 2 or 3 years of age, and previously had a URI during his stay in the shelter. His marble tabby colors and handsome face caught my eye, so staff opened the cage door and I sat on the floor as to not scare him. He woke up, stretched, hopped down out of the cage and immediately climbed into my lap to settle down for pets. I'd never seen anything like that before, it was a clear sign. Sir Gallant was his slave name, a fitting one at that - he was absolutely charming. I picked him up from the cattery on a Saturday morning. At the time I lived alone in a X sq ft apartment without any other pets, but I wasn't sure if he'd be up for exploring right away. Indeed, as soon as I let him out of his carrier, he headed straight for the bedroom and crawled under the bed. I decided to take a nap, and when I woke up 2 hours later, I peered under the dust ruffle to make sure he was still there and to say hello. Astonishingly, he crawled out and jumped up on the bed and made biscuits on my chest. Well, that was easy. From there I showed him around the place. He wasn't skittish at all (even when I ran the dishwasher) and settled in immediately. Artey was pretty much the perfect cat. He was incredibly lovey and was in my lap 3/4ths of the day. He wasn't really interested in toys or playing most of the time, which was ok because I wanted a chill cat. He greeted me at the door every time I came home from being out and would meow at me. I'd meow back and have conversations with him. He only ate dry food, I couldn't get him interested in canned. He also drank out of his own glass - a short one meant for liquor that'd I'd fill and leave for him on my little dining room table. Taller ones he'd spill once the water level went down enough to where he couldn't reach it. He almost always used his box properly and his poo didn't even stink for some reason. He slept on my legs every night and followed me everywhere when I was awake. He was my best buddy. I had silly names for him like "mister buddy cat", "arteypants mcbuttturds", "boo boo" and the like.He had some minor health issues probably due to the URI - he was sneezy and snorty, and snored in his sleep, but I didn't think much of it and he was given a clean bill of health during his vet visits. During the 2nd half of 2012, he started losing weight, vomiting often, and most distressingly, coughing. I was having financial difficulties and didn't take him to the vet until November. I wasn't expecting what the vet found - acute heart failure. His chest was full of fluid. They drained the fluid, but I guess the vet visit stressed him out and he went downhill. He became lethargic and no longer greeted me at the door, instead spending nearly all of his time on my bed asleep. I had to give him multiple injections and cream in his ear per day because he was impossible to pill. His kidney function was compromised due to his lack of appetite, and he probably had some fatty liver going on. Still, we both kept at it as best we could, the vet visits and medications basically bankrupting me. Come April the following year, he had slowly started getting better. He was eating again, greeting me at the door, and spending more time in my lap than on my bed asleep. I thought the worst was over until I had to go out of town for a personal emergency. My neighbor agreed to take care of Artey and give him his shots and stuff, she was a champ and said he did ok with everything. I was gone for a week. When I returned home, Artey was incredibly happy to see me. I gave him lots of love. I wasn't home but for an hour or so, going through my mail, when he suddenly let out this awful meow like he was in pain. He was on my computer desk, I rushed over and sat in the chair and put him in my lap. He pissed on my shirt and clawed into my leg. I started to panic. Even though I had my computer on and running in front of me, my brain decided I needed to get up and get the phone book to call the emergency vet. I set him in the chair and did so, but by the time I came back, his pupils were dialated and he was exhaling for his last time. He was only 8 years old. I bawled for hours. Turns out my buddycat was the only thing keeping me stable. My own health deteriorated and I had to resign from my job and move into a cheaper apartment with roomates, unable to take care of a cat. I had Artey cremated and I keep his ashes in a box in my closet. I miss him terribly, 2½ years later. Sorry for the  . Because I can't have a cat, post cats
