Had to say goodbye to Powder today. He was 17 years old.

This cat had a load of personality. He was going to be a handful when he managed to scoop out and kill my 8 year old goldfish (I did not know goldfish could live that long). He would recreationally scratch just about any vertical surface without care or consequence (mellowing out after having moved to NYC). He enjoyed chocolate – we’d let him sniff and lick the wrappers (if you had chocolate, he would follow you around). He also loved eating anything green (especially mint from Olessia’s garden). Powder taught Dmitri not to tease or mess with a cat (Powder would give warning scratches that wouldn’t break the skin).
