    Thank you everybody for the kind words, sorry if it upset some of you again, but I wanted to make sure people were aware... it's tough to keep everyone totally updated on our daily cat stuff compared to FB & IG but I'm going to post more frequently on our community page too moving forward.
    I also wanted to let people know that we made a memorial "Team Cole Furever" design on shirts and hoodies if you wanted one... I've seen many comments about people wearing their original "Team Cole" shirts when he was going through treatments... it's a really nice design we created with his profile set against a moon outline with paw prints and stars, plus we added in his one white whisker, the link is here if you want to grab one while you can: www.bonfire.com/store/cole-and-marmalade/
    *Also please let me know if there's any specific Cole clips you must see included in his compilation video, I don't want to miss anything - Thanks, Chris

      @Tech he's uploaded his cat videos for years and people have grown to love his cats. People kept asking about Cole and weren't aware of his passing, and so this was his way of memorializing his cat. It isn't as shameful as you're making it out to be.

Besides, I can imagine it won't be easy for Marmalade, Zig, and Jug to see Cole being gone. And losing family is never easy. Take it from someone who has been there when cats have gone.

    Cole left his paw prints on all of our hearts, and both BossCat and myself want to say many furry thanks to you and MomCat for sharing not only Cole, but all of your furry family with us. Just when I think that BossCat can't surprise me, he does yet it again. When he heard your voice talking about Cole (he was taking a kitty power nap during this time) he hopped in my lap and as the videos of Cole came on the screen, he leaned forward and kept tapping at the screen every time he heard Cole purr. He sends all of his best purrs and meows to you and your furry feline family - for whatever reason, Cole left his paw prints on BossCat's heart as well. We miss you, Cole, but we know that you are happy and healthy at the Rainbow Bridge, awaiting the time that you are all reunited forever. 🤗😻🐾🐾💖💖💖

I can’t imagine how many of those kitties are thankful to Cole of lending his paw (with the help of his humans of course) of giving them a chance of finding furever homes. That just shows he was the best kitty. Don’t EVER feel that you have to apologize for grieving over a member of your family.

      I was feeling bad about Cole's departure, but this post got me crying. You have the right attitude, keeping in mind what a good life you gave Jacob. I have lived long and lost many beloved cats and a few dogs. The worst is when I suddenly remember that one of them has now been gone for 10 years, or some other one, even 50 years or more; the last and most beloved one, 7&1/2 years this month. I think of how long I have not seen them, and it breaks my heart.
      But I know that I have a lot of company of even unknown friends who have also known the wonderful love of their "family animals," and for all of us, this grief is not a "disenfranchised grief," as one dog owner once put it, but an understood one. That helps.

    I remember when my Rowan had to get radiation to his eye socket (after getting his eye removed due to lymphoma) his fur turned white in that area. It devastated me when his tumor returned and took over his face and jaw. The fur babies are our kids. You will see Cole again one day, and he will be the same ball of purring fur he always was.

    I lost the love of my life today, Alfie Kat. I’m a breast cancer survivor on my own. My cat was my reason I fought so hard. I totally understand the pain of losing Cole. I guess I should make an announcement video of my own on my very small UA-cam channel but the pain is just to severe for now. If anybody wants to see my Alfie, go watch. I’d love to hear from all the cat lovers. I don’t know if my heart will ever heal. Please stay strong for your other kitties.

    all animals are special, *wonderful* friends, and grieving them is just as important as grieving a family member or friend, because they ARE family and friends
    take as long as you need, because Cole was part of your family, and that's too important to ignore

      @Prinz Mondkatze Ich glaube auch, dass Katzen Geister sehen können.
      Es gibt ein Video mit Marmalade, da sieht er wirklich so aus, als würde er mit einem anderen
      unsichtbaren Kater kämpfen. Vielleicht hat Cole Marmalade besucht für einen anständigen
      Kater-Kampf, wie Katzen es lieben.
      Ich bin katholisch; mein Glaube sagt, Tiere haben keine unsterbliche Seele. Ich will das
      nicht glauben und schon gar nicht akzeptieren. Aber nicht alles, was der kathol. Glaube sagt,
      ist richtig.
      -.-.-.-.-
      I also believe that cats can see ghosts.
      There's a video with Marmalade where he really looks like he's with someone else
      fight invisible cat. Maybe Cole visited Marmalade for a proper cat fight, as cats love them.

      I am catholic; my belief says animals do not have immortal souls. I don't want to believe
      that and certainly don't accept. But not everything that the Catholic faith says it's right.

The only good thing that came out of COVID was all the remote work I got to spend so much more time with him in his last couple of years. Now I'm spending time with my new rescues Scout and Jem who are a work in progress. They still think I'm big and scary, but do understand that I'm the food and treat provider so that means, at least, I'm not 100% big evil scary thing.
