How did they come in to your life, what was your connection like, what made them different from other cats? Are they still with you, if not how do you cope with the loss? Photos appreciated too obvs.

I have two 15 year old sisters and they are both magical.
One is a sassy, clever girl who craves more human interaction than she will admit. She begs for anything I’m eating like a dog, and has an insatiable curiosity. She is very loving once she knows you, but is extremely wary of strangers.
Her sister is dumb as a box of rocks and the sweetest cat I’ve ever known. She will only eat cat food or canned tuna. No interest in chicken, beef, dairy, nothing. She adopted my nose as a kitten and still has a fascination with excessively licking it, 15 years later. She is curious only about her next boring ass meal or my current lap location. She is instant friends with any human that walks through the door.
They both came from the same litter. 😂
I’ve had a lot of cats and loved them all but these two are special.
Your clever cat sounds like our Whisper. He is very intelligent and loves to explore (fortunately he tolerates a harness and we either take him outside with it or under strict supervision). He also knows what doorhandles do, but fortunately can’t operate them himself.
As for food fussiness, our cats amuse us too. There is a wet food brand called “Fussy Cat” here that Tabitha won’t eat at all and Whisper only under protest (and he’s the food-oriented one). Tabitha definitely prefers anything fish, even to the extent that she’ll voluntarily go to her dry food feeder (containing salmon-flavoured kibble) instead of eating the chicken or beef wet food. As for the loaf type foods, I don’t think she even recognises them as being edible! Fortunately Whisper has not worked out that human food is edible (and we plan to keep it that way), or he’d be intolerable at meal times.
They are such wonderful, unique companions! I’ve had almost a dozen cats in my decades of life, and every one had a distinct personality.
