I miss you Mystic!!!!

Last week there were lots of trips to the vet, and we finally had to say goodbye to Mystic. It was a sad decision, but his illness with his colon finally got the better of him. We are lucky that his medicine worked for as long as it did.
Mystic adopted me when I was living in Atlanta, GA. One extremely foggy night I had stopped at the mailbox on the way home to my apartment. I had stopped to look up at the fog, since I hadn't seen it so thick in a long time. I looked down at my feet and there was a cute little white kitten at my feet staring up at me expectantly. I picked him up, petted him and looked around. To this day I have no idea where he came from. He followed me to my apartment and of course I let him in.
He slept on a pillow next to me that night and he purred the loudest I've ever heard. I had no idea a kitten that little could purr so loud! I should have taken that as a clue to how big he would become! He turned out to be a 16lb teddy bear of cuddliness!
I introduced him to Sasha hoping they would get along and instantly they became friends ... as if they were long lost brothers.
I have lots of pictures of Mystic sleeping of which I'll post a few below. The fact that he was so big and that he liked to sleep on his back, made for some cute and funny sleeping positions. I had to snap a picture when I found him in such a position. One of the places we would find him frequently is under the covers on my parents' bed.

No, it's not a stuffed pillow!

We bought him a new bed last year which he stretched out in frequently.

I wonder where Mystic could be?

We were searching the house for him and stumbled upon him taking a nap.
