Max
Max was a 10 yr. old orange tabby - found up a tree at the local
shelter, he came into Nemo's and my life with energy, love. His
whole life was measured in one word, affection. He was adorable,
kind, loving and playful. Talkative, and vocal he would constantly
ask questions with the tone of a hook after each expression.
He was a constant pal to Nemo, chasing and playing with him, even
when Nemo was spent by his presence. Max from day one, curled under
the covers, and would sleep with me - every night of his life. He
would hop in joy at seeing me, with two paws up in greeting. Max
enjoyed all food and would be bold enough to eat the cracker out of
your hand and mouth! I have never met a cat so full of love and
affection, his sole mode of life was to be loved and to love back. |

Max developed a severe breathing disorder, in the past three days he
was suffering from an acute lack of oxegen. The vet went back and
forth, from asthma to heart failure, finally concluding with throat
cancer. It was rapid, difficult and extremely sad after the loss of
Nemo just a few weeks prior. Max was put to rest on 11 May 2005 at
6:30 pm.
Max would follow Nemo everywhere. If Nemo went into the bathtub for
the few remainder drops of water, Max would be right behind. I can
only hope and pray that somewhere Max has found Nemo again and is
following him still. Max was adored, well loved and his life will be
sadly missed.
