Merlin’s Last Sleep

The tomcat who I have been trying to trap for over four years now, who I named Merlin has caught his last nap. He was curled up under our Chinese maple this morning and at first I thought he was just sleeping. But he’s gone. He must have gotten hit on the road and made his way back to a place he felt safe to take his last nap. I know we can’t save them all but he was worth all our efforts even if they didn’t pay off in the end.

Good Night Merlin-

  1. Rest in Peace from a life well lived, Merlin. Clearly you have been a very bright and resourceful boy! I am so glad you could find your way home, even though it was your last short journey. Give our best wishes to our friends at the Bridge.

  2. I think your efforts did pay off in the end. Merlin came back to where he knew comfort and safety. Your property was where he wanted to be at the end. That is a victory, for you and for him. Godspeed, Merlin.

  3. awww that is so sad, poor little guy, thank God that he knew of a safe place to get his final rest. he knew you cared for him. RIP Merlin, go and spread your magic across the rainbow bridge!
