Farewell my dear cat

in GEMS5 years ago

I wasn't sure if I should make this post or not, but our tomcat was a loved member of our family for a long time, and after finding some nice photos, he should stay in my and our memories this way.

Ich war mir nicht sicher, ob ich diesen Beitrag machen soll oder nicht, aber unser Kater war für eine lange Zeit ein geliebtes Mitglied unserer Familie, und nachdem ich ein paar nette Fotos gefunden habe, soll er auf diese Art in meiner und unserer Erinnerung bleiben.

Farewell "Whiskey"
Maine Coon Tomcat

We got our beloved Maine Coon tomcat "Whiskey" at the age of two months in May 2010 and he only looked so shy on the first day.

Wir haben unseren lieben Maine Coon Kater "Whiskey" im Alter von zwei Monaten im Mai 2010 bekommen und nur am ersten Tag hat er so scheu geschaut.

Just a month later, the cat tree that we bought for him was too small and too weak, and shortly after these photos we had to buy a new, stable cat tree that even our children could climb on at the age of 15.

Schon einen Monat später war der Kratzbaum, den wir für ihn gekauft hatten, zu klein und auch zu schwach und kurze Zeit nach diesen Fotos mussten wir einen neuen stabilen Kratzbaum kaufen, auf den sogar unsere Kinder noch im Alter von 15 Jahren klettern konnten.

About two months ago I took this last photo on a warm January morning on our balcony, where we both enjoyed the beautiful hours of sunshine.

He did that a lot - looking and let his tongue hang out ;)

Vor etwa zwei Monaten habe ich dieses letzte Foto an einem warmen Jännermorgen auf unserem Balkon gemacht, wo wir beide die schönen Sonnenstunden genossen haben.

Das hat er oft gemacht - schauen und die Zunge raushängen lassen ;)

A short time later he unfortunately got sick and although we and our veterinarian thought that he is getting healthy again, Whiskey unfortunately did not wake up yesterday one day after his tenth birthday.

This morning there was no cat anymore that jumped on our bed after my alarm clock rang and sat on my chest with its 12 kilos meowing "get up, I am hungry!".

Kurze Zeit später ist er dann leider krank geworden und obwohl wir und unsere Tierärztin dachten, dass er über den Berg sei, ist Whiskey gestern einen Tag nach seinem zehnten Geburtstag leider nicht mehr aufgewacht.

Heute Morgen ist keine Katze mehr nachdem mein Wecker geläutet hat auf das Bett gehüpft und sich mit seinen 12 Kilo auf meine Brust gehockt und "aufstehen, ich habe Hunger!" miaut.

Remember

Remember me when I am gone away,
Gone far away into the silent land;
When you can no more hold me by the hand,
Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay.
Remember me when no more day by day
You tell me of our future that you plann'd:
Only remember me; you understand
It will be late to counsel then or pray.
Yet if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember, do not grieve:
For if the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of the thoughts that once I had,
Better by far you should forget and smile
Than that you should remember and be sad.

by Christina Georgina Rossetti

I hope it was not wrong to make this posting that is so different from my usual photo posts, but I just felt like I had to do something that would remind of our cat for a long time.

He was a strict boss, but we loved him very much.

Ich hoffe, es war nicht falsch, dieses Posting zu machen, das so ganz anders ist als meine üblichen Fotoposts, aber ich hatte das Gefühl, ich muss etwas machen, das lange an unseren Kater erinnern wird.

Er war ein strenger Boss, aber wir haben ihn geliebt.

Information

The older photos were shot with my Olympus E-510 DSLR and the last one I have shot with my Canon EOS R and the Canon EF 70-200mm f/4 L IS II USM lens. I added a blurry effect to the last photos, because our balcony is not that beautiful, at least not in winter ;)

I leave all EXIF and IPTC information stored in the pictures.


If you like my photos I would appreciate an upvote, nice comment or a resteem 😊 ... and maybe you would like to follow me, so that you never miss a post from me.

Thank you for visiting my blog,
have a nice evening,

Ein schöner Post über einen außergewöhnlichen Kater - seine Augen sind echt beeindruckend! Es ist traurig, wenn jemand geht. Ich wünsche euch fröhliche Erinnerungen und ein nach vorn gucken.

Es gibt viel Fröhliches und auch extrem lustige Sachen, an die wir uns immer wieder erinnern werden. Der Kater war zwar unser Boss 😉, aber auch ein guter Freund und geliebtes Familienmitglied.

Mit seinen großen Augen hat er so lieb schauen können oder gewisse Leute hat er damit nur anschauen brauchen, dass sie in einem Respektsabstand an ihm vorbeigegangen sind, denn er war schon ein ziemlich großes Kätzchen 😉

Vielen lieben Dank für deine netten Worte @ditsch, ich wünsche dir noch einen schönen Abend und ein wunderschönes Wochenende 🙂

So sorry for your loss and yes you had to do this post, losing a cat is like losing one of your family, they are such an integral part of your life

Good morning JJ and thank you very much.
There is a hole now where our cat was which can only be filled very slowly, but never fully I believe.

I hope everything is fine with you and your family - I need to ask, because things seem to get worse here - people think the apocalypse is coming and buy all food they can get, many shops are almost sold out, many places are closed already ... interesting days are coming.


A !BEER has to be cold and a !COFFEEA has to be hot to taste good and not !DERANGED 😉

Trust me from when our cat passed on the whole it never filled and at times you will feel it is still there with you

We are fine, we have stocked up early luckily as so many of the aisles inthe stores now are emtpy, we didnt go crazy but I am glad we did stock up a little

I may not be !DERANGED but I share deranged tokens, similarly I don't drink !BEER anymore

Yes, I believe you - before this cat we have had another cat, which also died much too early, and although we then had Whiskey we still think sometimes about the other cat even today :)

We haven't bought very much - my sister has told me today she has enough food for a few weeks and I am sure my mother has even a lot more - her fridge is always filled ;)


A !BEER has to be cold and a !COFFEEA has to be hot to taste good and not !DERANGED 😉

Thats understandable I think in one way or another they are always there for us

Lets hope those that have stocked up including me have been over prepared :)

Have a great weekend

I may not be !DERANGED but I share deranged tokens, similarly I don't drink !BEER anymore

Yes, let's hope that you were wrong - at least you won't have to go shopping for a while ;)

Good morning JJ, I wish you a great day and weekend too 🙂


A !BEER has to be cold and a !COFFEEA has to be hot to taste good and not !DERANGED 😉

I have got enough so were good for a couple of weeks, I know by seeing some peoples shopping carts they seem to be stocking up for months, I hope they arent doing the right thing LOL

Good morning have a good weekend

I may not be !DERANGED but I share deranged tokens, similarly I don't drink !BEER anymore

My wife went shopping this morning and she said that it was quite as on every other Saturday, apart from the fact that there was not much toilet paper left ;)
I think, that most people have bought as much as they could store at home and at least the shopping experiences have become about normal again for a while.

A valley in Tyrol was quarantined yesterday and this morning a single village in Carinthia - both areas are very well visited tourist and ski ressorts.
I believe there will be more quarantine zones soon and I still believe that our government is handling the situation the right way, what means I am still very optimistic 👍🙂

Moin Johann, nein es war nicht falsch.
Es war der gebührende Abschied welche Dein kater verdient hat. Schließlich war er ein Familienmitglied und das nicht nur ein paar Tage.

Liebe Grüße

Hallo,
so ist es - normalerweise sollte hier alles gespeichert bleiben - zumindest die Texte.
Ich wünsche dir auch einen schönen Tag,
liebe Grüße 🙂

!BEER

Danke meine Lieber, der Tag ist schön, alles verdichtet sich zu dem was ich so sehe im Moment.

Die Welt wird dicht gemacht und alle Fluchtwege werden verschlossen.

Die Kabale wird fest gesetzt.

Liebe Grüße
Peter

!BEER

Du wirst zwar sagen, dass das auch geplant ist, was dann ein Widerspruch zu den Fluchtwegen wäre, aber ich sage trotzdem, dass ich gar nicht von hier weg will.

Der Virus ist real und mein Land tut das Richtige. Die ganzen Informationen, die von den Menschen in den sozialen Medien verbreitet werden und über bereits aktive Ausgangssperren, Lebensmittelknappheit, Bankenschließungen und so weiter berichten, sind alle Blödsinn und gefährlich, aber das ist manchen Menschen egal.

Ob es nun eine große Verschwörung ist, an die ich nicht im Geringsten glaube, oder ein Unfall, ist vollkommen egal, denn wir werden gewinnen ... so wie alles Positive eine negative Seite hat, hat auch Negatives irgendwelche positiven Auswirkungen, die wir irgendwann bemerken werden ... und Thema aus ;)

Liebe Grüße 🙂

!BEER

Recht hast Du, was kommt, das kommt. Lassen wir uns überraschen :)

Peter

Losing a pet is never easy, and it reminds us of the huge role they played in our lives, cherish the memories @johannpiber.

Thanks for sharing this lovely photos of Whiskey.
