Aww, Kicker, I'm so sorry about Tommy. He sounds like a true feral Tomcat.

We have one of those here now.....Mr. Moony. He's ornery as a wet hen but continues to come back because he knows I'll never let him go hungry.

He may not have been your cat but you were his human.

He must have had quite a life if he lived 15 1/2 years! Thanks for giving him a home even though he was technically not yours!! **he was yours **
