Markus,
I'm very sorry to hear of your loss, and will remember Gizmo. The loyalty and
unique empathy of our small friends is a gift that lives on.

Markus,
Very sorry to hear of your loss. Some of my best friends were/are cats!
I had a cat that sat on top of my tube (valve) transmitter (a Heathkit DX-100)
to keep warm :-) Currently I have an old tabby that follows me around and waits
each morning to sit in my lap while I have my morning coffee in my reclining
chair. He waits for me in front of the chair while I have my breakfast at the
dinner table.
