Pumpkin decided 2026 was not for him and passed away peacefully in front of our Christmas tree during the wee hours. He was a grumpy old man cat who loved to yowl at 4am. Was an avid hunter and owned the room right up until the end. He was 20 years old. Had a good cat life. I’m sure his friend, Trouble, greeted him at the rainbow bridge. RIP Pumpkin.
