My post to the kittypix board about Micawber, which can be seen at
http://www.livejournal.com/community/kittypix/3447663.html
generated a lot of feedback. People were touched by its depth of feeling. This inspired me, in spite of my somewhat exhausted emotional state in general, to continue my careful planting of Micawber's memory on the Net.
A couple of weeks after his death, I reserved a Geocities site, at
http://www.geocities.com/micawber_cat/
which will eventually contain memories, pictures, stories, and poems detailing how Micawber touched my life and the lives of other people. He was a wonderful cat who will be very much missed.
For the moment, I've created pages for Micawber on two existing pet memorial megasites:
http://www.youns.com/memoriam/memorial.asp?ID=704
which allows people to leave tributes of their own (the password is gigolo) or sign the guestbook, and
http://www.in-memory-of-pets.com/personaltribute.asp?ID=40506
The careful eye will note the difference in the dates of Micawber's birth between the two sites... this was simply a case of me being fuzzy-headed. The correct date is actually sometime in April, but we're not sure exactly when, because we found Micawber on the street and of course he couldn't exactly answer our questions...
