Augustus, Jamie and Joseph

Augustus was a big guy, very handsome and majestic. As big as he was, that’s how gentle he was. He was a true gentleman who had two girlfriends, Jamie and China, who would sleep with him and lick him on his head. We will miss this gentle soul, who was always so kind and loving to us and to his brothers and sisters. He was a trooper until the end.

Jamie was one of Augustus’ girlfriends. She was a tuxedo cat and simply adorable.  As tiny as she was, she was a holy terror with the other cats.  She ruled the household in her own way. She loved to hide in the most unusual places.  We will miss her big eyes and little cries.  I will miss, most of all, her little head resting on my lap.  She was a trooper until the end.

Joseph was a skinny fellow but looks can be deceiving because he was very strong.  He loved being petted and you could do that for hours.  He was very quiet until he gave out a big wail in the middle of the night and he was always thinking as he looked around the apartment. He was also a great jumper. He loved his cat beds and enjoyed eating chicken, ham, cheese, and turkey. We loved his little black nose. He was simply so lovable. He was a trooper until the end.
