At around 9PM this evening, my little dumpling boy, our precious Rocky, died. He had been with us not quite three years. He was too young to die and I don't know why he did. One minute he was with us. I heard him cough. And he was gone. He was a very special kitty and he'll be greatly missed by Mr. Dragon, his sister, Riley, his big brother Teddy and his Mom. Especially his mom. Here are some of the latest photos that we had taken of him -- saving them for a camera critters post.
I don't believe this has happened. It's just too sad.
We love you Rocky.
Rest in Peace little one.
(I will be taking some time off from blogging. I'm not sure when I'll be back.)

Oh, Snap, I'm so sad hearing about Rocky! How devastating especially when he wasn't even sick and there was no indication. My thoughts are with you and I'm sending you a big hug.
Deep condolences and a warm hug. I'm sure it will take time to get over such an unexpected shock. My heart goes out to you.
Oh Snap... I'm so very sorry. This made me cry---just thinking of you and your family. Sudden deaths are the worst--and like you said, Rocky was too young to die.
My love and prayer are with you.. Take as much time as needed. We understand.
Hugs,
Betsy
Snap, I am so sorry to hear what happened. What a shock it must be, no warning. Lovely photos of Rocky, he looks very mysterious in these shots. Please know you gave him a life fully of love, comfort and joy. He is definitely missed.
I'm so sorry :'(
Sending you lots of love and hugs through space

Snap, this is so sad. So unexpected and Rocky was so young. When we don't know "why" we are even more saddened, wondering if we could have done something, but some things are truly out of our hands.
Sending you and your family cyber hugs and loving thoughts. Take time together and we will all be waiting here when you return. ♥
Oh, this is so sad. The suddenness of his going must be so hard. I am so sorry, lovely Snap, for you and Mr. Dragon. What a beautiful boy...When I lost my sweet cat George a few years back, my amazing vet sent me a card. It said something about how George was now sitting on God's lap, getting his strokes, and purring away. I loved that image. I see your Rocky, close to God's presense, sitting bright-eyed in the light shining down...
Take good care of you, Beautiful One.
Oh hon...I am so very sorry. That is just heartbreaking Snap. Huge gentle hugs and sending love your way.
I will miss you hon. Take care..talk with you soon.
Hugs and love, Sarah

Ah, Snap, I'm so, so sorry about your sweet boy. He was so beautiful. Big hugs to you. I'm so sad for you. We'll see you when you get back. Take care...

Dear Snap,
Rocky was a beautiful and healthy-looking kitty. It's so difficult to understand and deal with heartbreaking losses. I'm very sorry for your Family.

Sweetie! I am so sorry for your loss. You were so supportive when our dear pooch died, and we were expecting that to happen.
Your Rocky was a lovely beast.

How sad to hear about Rocky. I'm sending my deepest sympathy and my biggest hug for you.
Having owned animals most of my adult life...and having to say goodbye to far too many...I know how you feel, and will send up prayers that your heart heals leaving you with only good memories.
Blessing,
Donna
My deepest condolences. Losing a pet is very, very difficult. I know.
Whether it is quick, euthanasia (what we had to do the last time) or a prolonged illness, it is never easy.
Take care.
Thank you for visiting My Muskoka !
I'm so sorry Snap. Rocky was beautiful. Sending you a big hug.
this is the first time I saw Rocky and it is so sad that he died. I wonder if he choked on something.
So sorry to read about your loss. What a beautiful kitty! I lost my precious Sidney in May. I had him for 12 years. They are our faithful friends, and it is so difficult to lose them. Take care.
We are just finding out about Rocky and want to express our deep sympathy. Sometimes our fur babies are only with us a short time but they do give us so much joy and love. May happy memories of Rocky bring peace.
