   it is... since then (2019 actually), i've also buried Tori, Mama's daughter   
   and a tortise shell like Mama was, and friday we had services for my youngest   
   son (33yo)...

   i know the feeling... i still have Mama's last two boys, Tori's brothers...   
   Ice, an orange tabby, and Blue, a solid stocky blue-grey (no stripes) boy...   
   i've been letting them stay inside at times and there are times they insist on   
   having something in their dishes instead of eating out of the huge Jethro   
   bowl* of dry food i keep out for them... so what do i do? i go get a handful   
   of dry food from the Jethro bowl, put it on their dishes, and they're happy...   
      
   they come and get my attention to go out... especially since they have to go   
   out to do their business... i found some treats they like but they look at me   
   like i'm stoopid and my hair is on fire when i offer them catnip... they have   
   nothing to do with it at all... strange but true and weird in a way...
