Thank you for giving Orlando all of your love. He was lucky to have you!

I lost a flame point Siamese two years ago. I had named him Taco even though he was rescued from a vacant lot outside a Pizza Hut Restaurant. I had him for about 2 years.

Re: [Felvtalk] Picked up Orlandos ashes today
It is a rotten, terrible, filthy disease and unfortunately only one of several that take our fur-babies. God loves them all and takes care of them. We mortals just have to take care of them for him for a while til he tells them they have given us enough love and it is time to go. Thanks for loving Orlando.

Sending good thoughts to you. He sounds a lot like my Oliver, a six year old Siamese who tested positive for the virus.
