Cal's first Christmas, 8 weeks oldYesterday would have been Cal's 11th Gotcha Day. Since Cal was brought home around Christmastime, it was his favorite holiday of all. He loved tissue paper, bows, boxes, bags and ornaments. I really miss his help wrapping the present this year. It's just not the same without him.
Cal, Christmas 2008Thanks to Loki for this great award! We will proudly display it in our trophy case!! We would like to pass this award along to all of our great friends!

He was a lovely boy - so sad that he's gone! He was still enjoying the paper and bags last year. So sorry.
He was a very sweet boy who obviously had the Christmas spirit. He's probably watching all the preparations from the Bridge wearing an elf hat.
He is so lovely with all gifts papers and bags, he is really adorable, isn't it?
I loved your words in this post, and I totally agree my friends "All I want for Christmas is you", my friends"!!!
Love you friends!

You have just proved that even though he is not here in body, he will always be here in spirit! Here's to you Cal!
love ya,
Bruce the cat:)
OMG that first picture of Cal in your arms is the cutest thing ever!!
I'm all teary reading this post, because I know how much you miss Cal and I remember the first Christmas without my Muddy. I just faked my way through the holidays and nothing was the same.
Cal was the best. I loved him without ever having met him. He had a perfect soul and I can see why he's so missed.
Lots of love and purrs from the Monkeys
You know that we just adored Cal because he reminded us so much of our Lewis who went to the Bridge in Aug. 2008. It's so hard to go on without them, but having those wonderful memories is what gets you through.
We love that photo of Cal in the shopping bag from last year. :) We didn't get a chance know Cal but from all we've heard, he was obviously a wonderful cat. It's hard but good to remember the kitties that have gone on; we know he's keeping an eye on the rest of us.
Purrs and hugs,
The Kitty Krew
Sweet and sad...Cal has surely left his mark on the world.

Cal was quite a handsome mancat!
Gorgeous kitty. I'm sorry he is gone. I don't think we ever get over their loss.

Cal was such a cutie that first Christmas! It's nice to have pictures to help with the memories, isn't it? He is missed, but never forgotten!
I know how much you miss sweet Cal. Those sure were beautiful pictures too and thanks for sharing them with us.
He looks so cute on his first and his last Holiday.
You gave him a fabulous life ..
Cal was a real love. We understand your sorrow!
I didn't realize you had lost one of your kitties in the last year. It may be sad, but it's obvious that thoughts of Cal also bring back wonderful memories -- and those are forever.
Cal was a very handsome mancat. Love the photos of him as a kitten. We celebrate Cal today.
purrs!
We are so sorry you are missing Cal. Glogirly's daddy's name was Cal and she's missing him too.
mew!

We miss Cal too - he surely embodied the Christmas spirit all year!
We are sending purrs for you. Mama had a sad dream last night about her previous kitty, Queen Lily, and knows just how you feel.
This time of year is so hard on our mom's missing those babies of theirs who have gone to the bridge. Mom started to cry when she saw cute Cal's picture.
We got your cute card yesterday. Thank you!
(((HUGS)))
Cal was so cute. It is so hard around the holidays when you have lost a pet or a person. But at least you have those great pictures. Have you done a picture of him???
Cal was so adorable! We're sending you purrs since we know how hard it is to miss our furry loved ones at Christmas time. He's with you in spirit today and always!
Lovely to see Call so little :-)We never forget him .....
Hugs

OMG! All I Want for Christmas is you too in my arm.

Awww, Cal seemed like a sweet kittie! We help wrapping just like he did!!!
What cute baby pics of Cal. xxxxxxxxxxx We always seem to miss them more at this time of year.
I liked reading about Cal, such great baby photos.
I love the first picture of Cal! He reminds me of Coal when he was a baby. I know how you feel....this is the first Christmas without Max. Sometimes I still think I hear his distinctive meow. Pictures are a wonderful to help keep memories alive. I try to put all the energy into loving the ones who are still with me. Christmas Eve will be Snowball's 15th Gotcha Day...I'm so thankful she's still here with us!
Cal must be having a great time at The Bridge! Maybe there is paper up there for him to pounce on:)
What a love!
I'm sure Cal is looking over you at the bridge. Purrs to help you through this difficult time.
Good memories of Cal... Purrs to all of you.
That photo of you holding Cal absolutely slays me!!! I am not kidding. It's just the sweetest thing. Is there anything cuter than a black kitten??! No way :)!
I am so sorry that you will be missing your handsome boy this Christmas. I can definitely empathize...my heart aches for my Oozie girl and my Teddy Dee.
Thanks for sharing these precious memories with us!!
Purrs, Carrie
Cal looks like he was loads of fun. He really appreciated the whole fun of the holidays! Sorry you miss him so much.
We miss Cal too, it was so sad when he had to go. We sure you're indulging in some very sweet memories of him now. Many purrs to you and to Cal at the bridge.
Cal in the bag is such a cute picture. How lucky that we have pictures to remember out babies by, not just our memories.
{{hugs}} to you. Merry early Christmas to you and Christmasy-Cal at the Bridge.
Awwwwwww, what a little sweetheart little Cal was. I know around the holidays we always remember those not with us but having him come to you around this time of year makes you remember even more. They leave a big hole in our hearts when our love ones are no longer here. Nice that you had time together and have the memories you two made together.
Lovely pictures. WEe are glad you share your memories with us.
since we found some photos of Christmas with our cute Frieda we know how you feel.
Sending some comforting hugs and purrs
Such cute pictures! And congrats on your award! Well deserved!!
