@aasteppin Thank you.

@LnzyHou Thank you

@Superstitionsee Thank you. He's been showing his age for some time now. He was over 16. I hoped we'd have more time but he hid yesterday and he didnt do that. We found him clearly in distress and took him to the vet. Prognosis was poor and we couldn't let him suffer. We were all there at the end. It was peaceful.

@NorCalCherylLyn Thank you. He was getting old and had been showing it these last few weeks. Yesterday he hid, he never does that. We found him in distress. We were all there at the vet at the end. It was peaceful.

@Cdn_Skeptic_Wm I understand exactly what you mean. You just know it’s time…and it is always peaceful in our experience.

@softwaremerc Thank you.

@Kaysymmetry Thank you. I fell in love with him the first time I saw him in the Pet Smart. Couldn't get him out of my mind. Went back a couple of times before we adopted him from the Humane Society.

@Shenango_Linda Thank you.

@Knitpurrl Thank you. He was indeed a big guy. Tradesmen would come to the house and be startled how big he was. He was a gentle giant.

@Cdn_Skeptic_Wm Our orange guy too. He LOVED contractors. We’d have to warn them to be careful to search their truck before leaving because he loved exploring work trucks or vans left open. Also, he’d climb up unattended ladders 🪜 onto the roof. He loved power tools 🧰 and thought my Hubby was a God, because he was always renovating our house 😻🥰😻
Puttycats are the best. May all your good funny memories of Ernie soothe your hearts ❤️

@MonaT Thank you.
