RIP Tesla. I’m sorry for your loss. Good for Tinkerbell and Tucker. They look like they have it pretty good.We brought two cats with us from CA, Tesla and Tucker, both rescue and ~11 years old. I rarely post photos of them as they currently live in the loft of the (heated) garage (my wife's workshop), the cabin is too small for the 6 of us, and our Rottie has not been cat trained.
Since a bit more than a year, Tesla had intestinal cancer and received (via pills and us - daily chemotherapy). In the last 4 months or so, she started loosing weight, followed by a heavy flue for about a month. Even though she received daily antibiotics, and at ~6 pounds, she ended up with a pneumonia, and we had to say goodbye to her, Monday a week ago.RIP.
Our vet always has a handful of rescue cats, and at every vet visit, one in particular was flirting with me. A ~2 year old small female, who had her rear toes frozen off and surgically removed earlier in her life. She's called Tinkerbell (or Twinky in short). We took her home last Fri.
Over the week-end, I slept in the garage loft, helping Twinky getting comfortable and socializing with Tucker, who was quite grumpy in the beginning.
This is Tucker (you've seen him in some of my knife photos). He must be 25 pounds or so:

With my wife:
The two are getting along much better now, they eat from the same food station, etc. Will take a couple of weeks until they hopefully start grooming each other. So far so good.

My sincere condolences for Telsa, you gave her a great life with a loving heart. Saying goodbye is never easy.
Twinky looks likes she’s fitting right in, you can always tell a great home, best of luck.
