In Memory Of My Cat Onyx

Onyx was born on my farm in the winter. He lived in a building with heated cat beds and water to drink. His Mother was an excellent huntress, and Onyx grew up to be an excellent mouser.

Onyx died by the cat building and the grain bin near my house last evening. Onyx was ten years and seven months old. I buried Onyx on my farm and placed a marker on his grave. The cat tombstone says: You have left our lives but will never leave our hearts.

Onyx was a fantastic looking gorgeous black Tom cat. Onyx was part Siamese, Persian, Himalayan, and domestic short hair. Onyx had a shorter nose, like a Persian cat. His coat was sleek, and he was a neat, trim, gorgeous cat.

All of the kittens born on my farm are Onyx’s offspring. Kohl and Conrad, two of my house cats, are Onyx’s offspring.

Onyx is the father to Nicole and Peter next door. Onyx is the Grandfather to Sherlock, Hilford, Mr. Gray, and two more kittens I gave away to a beautiful and loving home. Onyx is also the father to many cats in my neighborhood.

Onyx was an excellent father to his kittens. They could play with his tail or wrestle with him, and he did not mind it. He taught his kittens to be excellent mousers. Onyx loved to watch his kittens play with leaves and was always kind and loving toward them and their mothers.

Onyx was always on patrol for any mice he could spot by my house in the ditch. I don’t think any mice escaped Onyx’s keen eyes and his excellent hearing and hunting skills. He kept my place almost completely rodent free, all on his own. When I would drive to town or come home from being in town, I would always spot Onyx hunting in the ditch by my house.

I will miss Onyx greatly. He was a kind and gentle Tomcat. Onyx had a bloodline that went back to my very first cat by the name of Flossie. We had a Himalayan Tom cat at one time and a black and white female cat that was part Siamese, Persian, and Himalayan, and Onyx is a decedent of them. This post shows a picture of Onyx, Kohl, and Conrad in memory of my beloved cat Onyx.
