I don't know where to start... Although we only had Alixzander Mikal, a purebred seal point siamese, for a year (he is 16months old now) it seems like he has been in our family forever. For about a month he's been battling FIP. Unfortunately, Alix passed away July 4 from this illness. My husband was holding him and he was purring so we know he went peacefully. Even though he lived a short life, I hope it was good. he will be missed! 
MEOW!

| I am SO sorry! I know you only had him a short time but that was long enough for you to be heartbroken over his loss. Even though you were expecting this to happen, you're never really ready. I am glad that he didn't suffer long, and that he had such a good loving home with you. Please come back to this site to keep in touch and let us know how you're doing, and then one day when you're ready, I hope you'll be telling us about sharing your love with another kitty - Alexander would want you to be happy!

| I am so sorry for your loss. Yes, you only had him for a year, but that is more than enough time to build a strong bond. Allow yourself the time to grieve, you lost a family member! Fortunately, he went peacefully. Remember the Rainbow Bridge, and know that he's there, waiting for you. Perhaps when your grief has run at least a portion of it's course, you'll want to think about getting another family member. If you do think about getting another cat, just remember, you are not "replacing" Alixzander Mikal; instead you are providing the opportunity for another cat to know the same sort of love that he had the priveledge of knowing.
