Clinton was not a corgi, but i know that had he been around and met Dillon and Gus he would have loved them. Clinton was my heart kitty, my little soul mate, I rescued him as a feral kitten at 6 months of age, he was skin and bones, covered in fleas, ear mites, full of worms and severely underweight. He stole my heart immediately. He became the friendliest cat, he would greet everyone as they entered my home, he was my shadow and we had a very special bond. He left for the bridge on 1/29/05 at 12 1/2 yrs of age . There has not been a day that goes by that i don't think of him, i shed tears for him daily for nearly 2 yrs and have finally gotten to the point that i can think about him and talk about him without tears but with smiles remembering all the special moments we shared. He has let me know in his own special way that he waits for me at the rainbow bridge until we meet again...That brings me much comfort knowing that we will see each other again one day. I have attached a few photos of my special boy:

From these pics, it looks like Clinton was always purring . . . and who could blame him?

Gosh, he looks sooo much like our own beloved Mutziputz that it made me gasp to see him. He was a constantly happy and purring cat, too. So sad to see them go, but we can only take comfort in the fact that we gave them a good home and love in return.

Thanks guys, he really was, still is and always will be my soulmate kitty, my special boy.. He was a real handful - he was always getting into something but he was the funniest cat with a whole lot of personality. Even people who were not cat lovers couldn't help but think he was cool. He was very dog like, trained to: give me paw, slap me five, sit, wave, come when called, give kisses on command and the best one, when he was bad, i would say " Clinton, Go sit in your corner" and he would go to the kitchen into the corner and scootch his butt all the way in and stare at the corner, until i said , ok... it really was funny to see, my husband about died the first time he saw that one, he couldnt believe his eyes... There really was something almost human about his intelligence .. I used to say that Clinton was a little man trapped in a furry cat suit...

Oh my gosh, he looks SO much like my Neelix!
Even sounds like him in personality.

I can understand how much you must miss him. They never really leave our hearts.
