RIP dear Cheddar. He was one of my strays who I met 5 years ago when I trapped him outside my gates, only to see he was eartipped. I was shocked as I never knew of anyone else who tnrd. Cheddar and I had a bond from the get go and I was the only one in his world that he allowed to pet or pick him up. He did not like other cats therefore he stayed in my neighbors yard where I fed him daily. He began to have pain when eating, so I had him examined to find what I expected, stomatitis. We also tested him for FELV with positive results which is common amongst cats who suffer with stomatitis. After months of meds and monitoring, losing weight and low blood counts, his relief was only temporary and I had to make the decision. These pics were taken in the morning before him going to Rainbow Bridge. He spent the night prior inside my cat room where we had talks and tears. He was so loved and I am glad I had the pleasure of knowing him and being his chosen one. He represented all stray and homeless cats who truly only want love and acceptance. Run free Cheddar till we meet again.
