I've run into bobcats and got about as close as the rock by the cougar center stage, but a big ol' lion is something alse again.
Not my photo, but from the area and about how close.

tradmanclimbs. Condolences to family & friends of your cat. It was a good-looking cat, but a sudden heart-attack at that advanced age is a cat-blessing.

Oh Trad, so sorry!
That's what I'd want to do though, long life, then active till an abrupt end.
Cheers, mr Bok!

I know it was the best way for him to go. It is also really good that I found him and know that he was not chased and lost. It still sucks and he was really a big part of my life.. Tami. Sorry about your kitty and anyone elses that i missed. did not read the whole thread.
ground is frozen. don't really know what to do. His fur is still soft and all but he is stiff and cold.

Rest in peace, Mr. Bok.
Poor little guy :(
My cat Rolo is probably around 16 years old and all boney and thin. He's always in good spirits and pretty spry and super annoying for an old dude, but I fear the inevitable. I hope when his time comes, it is quick.

Oh, I'm so sorry to hear about the passing of these furry companions. Tradman, I don't know what you'll end up doing. Hope Mr. Bok will let you know soon. I know what I want to do when the day comes. We have three cats. I love them dearly. When that day comes, I hope to have them cremated so I can carry a little of their ash with me for the rest of my life and scatter the rest onto their favorite soil where they had sniffed and rolled.

My kids found this cat as a stray kitten and took him in. My son named him starvin marvin, which has just been shortened to marvin.
If he was any more chill, he'd melt into a pile of goo.

I am a farm boy and i also have certain rules about how much money can be spent on pets vs helping out a needy family. I am friends with a coupple who both have cancer and are in danger of loseing their house. I would give the money to them before i spent a bunch of money on a cremation. It's cold enough here that he is ok for now in the unheated porch. hopefully i will be ready to figure something out next week.

made a nice little pine box from scrap wood. have a bonfire going in the yard and hope to be able to thaw it out enough to dig a hole. Isa is comming over this afternoon. We will plant a flowering bush there next year. Did take down the xmass tree and get that on the fire.

Mr. Bok has been loved. What a good life! What about an old blanket, sweater, or T-shirt of yours? Betcha he'd like that.
