I don't think this belongs in Jokes or Funny Stuff, it's not really funny, really just a touching story about a family and a cat. Pets make all things better.

Wow, i got a little choked up reading that. Truly love The Oatmeal. I recently picked up his latest book from Amazon, How To Tell If Your Cat Is Plotting To Kill You, it is pure awesomeness.
