Cougar 2003 - 2022

Cougar died April 11, 2022. He was 19 years old. He was born feral behind the Waitsburg Hardware Store. So, he was trapped and neutered and became the store cat. Cougar greeted customers at the cash register. He dearly loved his person John, and they shared many late-night meals and snacks together. He loved his food. Lasagna, pepperoni, and cheese popcorn were his favorites. He was the “Lion King” of the felines and canines that came through the store. He tolerated all the attention he received and was happy to oblige the people who came in for a “cat fix.” Cougar lived a long, wonderful life and died peacefully in Marilyn’s arms. There was a private burial, and a celebration of life will be celebrated later. Memorial contributions can be made to the Humane Society, or the cat rescue of your choice, so that another feral cat can have a chance at a good life.
