I announce with a seriously grieving heart that Jean Luc crossed the rainbow bridge this morning

[Hugh_Lebowski]

111. He was a Blue Burmese

I inherited him from my beloved aunt when she passed in 2021. She took care of a LOT of feral cats (at one point it was 17), but had a couple Burmese indoor cats she paid a lot of $$$ for. Bit of a splurge for her but she loved the breed and you didn't find 'em in shelters up by Yosemite, where she lived.

After she passed, he quickly became my favorite cat I've ever known ... and I've known a lot of kitties in my life

He was a little rocker dude (my aunt, who was retired, pretty much raised him on music) and seriously never cared how loud and rocking the tunes were going, he'd just chill, sleeping on my 15" subwoofer (seen in one of the pics above) while I worked all day listening to music

IOW, absolutely perfect cat for me. So sad I only got about 22 months with him after my aunt passed.
