Felix crossed the bridge in July and I think that I have cried every day since. Not trying to make this about me, just commenting that I know your pain. I’m hugging my Ronnie a little tighter right now. (His baby sister doesn’t like hugs, but she does like to curl up close by us). <br /><br />Much gratitude for the many years of laughs and love that Max and Buddah brought into our lives. <br /><br />- Alicia, mom of The Morris Pride (Ronnie and Dusty) <br /><br />I bought “The Psychokitty Speaks Out” not long after it was published. We read the book together and all thoroughly enjoyed it! Although we do not comment here often, we check the blog every month or so that I can read the updates to the boys. Needless to say, this was a hard one to read. <br /><br />Sending much love and prayers for comfort. <br /><br />p.s. I bet Felix totally ambushed Max for an autograph when he arrived at The Bridge.

I found his "Rules" on Amazon when we adopted our cats Minibelle and Petite and I was looking for advice about how to be a good guardian. I certainly learned the lesson about spoiling the kitties. Thank you for sharing Max with all of us. I will be thinking of him when I read more of the Wick books.

I'm sure Max trotted over that bridge and immediately took over. I have a tuxie who's now 12 but she doesn't blog like Max. She and her sibling do not get along(sound familiar?) <br /><br />God bless you for staying with him to the end. I always stay with mine when their time comes because you know your face is the last one he will see.<br /><br />I discovered Max's blog in 2007 and have loved his (and your)spirit. God bless you and keep you safe. Know that when you cross the bridge, he will be there to greet you and show you the way.

Yesterday...Yesterday morning, I read the sad news. Yesterday afternoon, I went shopping. Last night I wrote a comment of deep feelings of loss about Max. Today, I went to read other comments and realized my comment never showed up. <br /><br />I didn’t write immediately yesterday because tears were streaming down my face and I type badly enough under normal conditions. And I wanted to organize my thoughts. I went shopping because you mentioned a couple times that Max loved Gerber’s Turkey, so I thought I would buy some for The Mews as a sort of Wake meal. Last night I wrote about important Max was in our lives here. And it is gone into Internet Hell.<br /><br />Some expressions of sadness can never be fully replicated, but I will try again (and this time doing it in Word so I can save it).<br /><br />Max was the most important cat in my life that I never met nose-to-nose. I discovered his blog while I was still employed in a stressful job. He made my day tolerable. I had never considered the idea of a cat blogging. Max made me smile with his snark and Catitude.<br /><br />Max is why I blog.<br /><br /> When I retired in 2006, reading Max’s blog at home, I found a couple other cat blogs. “Somewhere” I saw a “free blog” button and clicked it. Skeeter and LC and I were into another world. Skeeter and LC went over The Bridge in a couple of years. They were both elderly when we started. But there was still Max. Ayla joined me, then I was guided to Marley and eventually Iza and suddenly there was “The Mews”.<br /><br />Because of Max.<br /><br />None of us can ever truly know the depths of loss another person feels when a beloved cat friend leaves us. We can try, from our own experience, but grief and loss is so personal. I was shattered when Skeeter left. Driving home from the Vet took a long time because I couldn’t drive and cry at the same time. I had to pull over many times during the short trip.<br /><br />Reading Max’s blog helped after the dark days.<br /><br />I am sure that Skeeter, LC, Iza and all the cats over The Bridge were waiting there to greet and honor Max when he arrived. The meows, licks and sniffs are probably still going on. He had That Many Friends.<br /><br />I explained again about The Bridge to Ayla, Marley, and Laz as they ate the Gerber’s Turkey solemnly in Max’s honor. It reassures them to know we will all be together again after a brief parting. <br /><br />I’ve been blogging for 14 years now, because of Max. Damn, I’m going to miss that Dood! 19 1/2 years were Too Few! He made such a difference in my life…<br />Mark's Mews (Marley, Lori, Loki, and Binq)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11135668126649348317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5994698.post-61994683612740109852020-11-15T11:36:02.289-08:002020-11-15T11:36:02.289-08:00it was gloriouis for us friends too.

Dad says we'll send loving purrs and healing thoughts your way, and he also says the blogging world is so full of others who know just how you feel. He lost his old Orbit after about 23 years and held him in his arms during his last moments before crossing the bridge, too. He says it was so hard, but he's so glad he did it. He and mom also know the quiet that befalls a home when such a wonderful presence is no longer there. Be well, and even though we didn't know Max our hearts hurt for you.Smudgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16226245570491413865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5994698.post-30448136154493129622020-11-14T20:27:45.152-08:002020-11-14T20:27:45.152-08:00I’m so sorry to hear about the loss of your sweet ...I’m so sorry to hear about the loss of your sweet Max.
