Wordless Wednesday — In Memory of Minou

| Minou — you will be missed. |
Updated: I should add that Minou was my in law’s cat, not ours personally. But my husband and our kids loved him dearly! Because I am allergic to cats, Minou was the closest my family could get to having our own.
P.S. To answer Neisha’s question, ‘Minou’ means ‘pussycat’ in French. My husband’s family is from Quebec.

It is sad when this happens isn’t it…
I’m so sorry for your loss. What a beautiful & special cat!
What a pretty cat. My dh is allergic to cats as well, so we will have to enjoy the cats of others!

I am allergic too but I know the loss of any pets (even those once-removed) is heartbreaking.
Oh no!!!!
I’m sorry to hear it.
so sorry our pets are almost like our kids
Oh! That looks just like my beloved Blossom that I had to put down when she developed an anxiety disorder in the middle of our move (5 years ago). What a pretty face. I’m sorry for you, your folks’, and your kids’ loss – it’s a sad thing for all.
Hope everybody takes the loss in stride. Pets by proxy are just as dear.
I’m so sorry. Losing a pet is hard.

He certainly was a cutie. I’m sure he would approve of this tribute.
Adorable cat! Awesome eyes.

I hope Minou had a long and happy life.
It is really sad
Aww, I’m so sorry. Rest in peace Minou.
I’m so sorry–I know how hard it is to lose a pet. He was so beautiful:)
What a beautiful cat! I’m so sorry. She reminds me of the one I grew up with…the one my brother and I conned my mom into keeping because we thought she was pregnant. It turned out that she was a really popular (well-fed) stray!
Sorry to hear about your in-laws cat. I know it’s hard to lose a pet — we lost our beloved boston 6 years ago and still to this day my kids talk about him. TFS
You, your family and in-laws have my deepest sympathy over the passing of Minou. I have 7 cats and they are part of the family. A part of your heart will be missing, I know I lost one during the winter and I still grieve daily. Mine looked a lot like Minou. Hugs, Sheree
I’m so sorry! Our pets are like family too.
Thanks for hosting!

I’m just wondering if there is a story behind the name, Minou ??

I’m sure it’s tough. What a sweet picture, though, to keep.
Sorry to read about the family cat.
It is so sad when you lose a pet, we just lost our beloved Blackie, a black Lab, in January. He was 12 years old and very loved.
Sorry about your family’s loss.

Awwwwwwwwwwww what a great looking meow meow. Hugs sorry
So sorry… She was a gorgeous cat.
Oh how sad! So sorry she is gone!
Our 8 year old lab died shortly after I started blogging, so there is quite a lengthy tribute to our dear Bandit recorded for posterity on my blog. He was such a great dog!
So sorry for your loss.
Very late, I forgot to come back and join it- happy ww!
Beautiful kitty… sorry for the loss.
I’m so sorry. We lost one of our cats to kidney failure at age 21 a few years back.
It’s always hard to loose our furry friends.
So sorry for your family’s loss. She was a beautiful kitty!
