Not even a month after my beloved Nina passed away, and I’m here writing about another cat, Miele, who died due to renal failure. Unfortunately having so many old cats, it’s not something entirely unexpected.

In this case at least he lived a long life for a cat, he is the pet of mine that lived most, 18 years! Though we’re not sure about the exact birth date, since we rescued him in 2002 and he was already no longer a kitty.

He was a shy, a bit crazy cat – he would never stand still inside our house. Always exploring the surroundings, but finding time to go back and show his affection, especially in the evening when I was watching the TV.

It’s sad for me for two reasons: the first one obviously that I lost him. The second because he was the first pet my wife and I adopted together, and that’s also when I really fell in love with her beautiful soul.

Goodbye Miele, it has been a good and long ride!
