We lost Poppy Cat in September, 2007. He contracted Feline aids from fighting other feral and stray cats. We had him euthanized in order that he not suffer and also so he wouldn't infect other outdoor cats. Mama Cat is healthy and doing fine. Sadly, diseases among feral and stray cats are all too prevalent.
Poppy Cat passed on over the Rainbow Bridge in September of 2007. Poppy was a feral Tom, though we had him neutered 9 months before he passed over. We loved him dearly and he is greatly missed.
