We had Smokey since he was born and myself and my son loved him dearly!he was part of our little family and we are both heartbroken!Smokey was so gentle and affectionate,he followed us everywhere for kisses and cuddles he loved nothing better than to sit on your lap being rubbed and cuddled!we found out Smokey had throat cancer and he passed away fairly suddenly but thank God he wasn't in any pain!We got Smokey cremated and are awaiting his ashes which we will keep in our house so he will always be with us.
