So on Saturday night at Bonnaroo, during Bruce Springsteen, a cat wandered into our campsite begging for some food. So after devouring several chicken legs and tuna fish, he started being really sweet to us and basically slept on our laps until we left for the late nights. Well, the cat loved us so he chilled in the camp chairs until we got back... When I got back from moe., the cat was curled up in Ausman's lap. When the cat was still chillen in our camp on Sunday morning when Kristina and Kim left, they decided to take him home, where he was just the cutest and best cat of all time. We named him Bruce since thats when we found him, and had just gotten collars made. He loved the scratching post, the laser pointer, and playing with toys. Unfortunately he died this morning of complications from anesthesia when he was getting fixed... We are going to miss Mr Bonna-Bruce... it really sucks that we only got to know him for 2 weeks.

yeah he was so skinny -- kinda looked like a tour cat or something... there was also a dog that came by that night but he had a collar on with directions to his owner's camp so we didn't steal him.

That is so sad! I'm also glad you gave him a good home these past few weeks. He chose you guys for a reason and I bet he never regretted it for a second!

awwwwwwwwww. it's amazing that you got a kitty at roo. i'm sure i would have tried to take him home too. it's so sad that he had to pass so soon at least he had an amazing last few weeks.
I was wondering if it may have been the kitty we heard non-stop by Camp Custy all weekend....but the one we heard was a tiny one, I think no more than like a month or two old.
I'm sorry to hear about Bruce's complications That is really sad.
aww that is sad. but with so many celebrities dying lately i thought the boss had died. i was like damn, should have watched him at bonnaroo. i know you are really sad after getting attached to the cat and having it die so soon.

Not gonna lie, I thought the exact same thing when I first saw the title. It kinda freaked me out a bit. But this Bruce was much cuter and cuddlier (atleast I imagine so)
Dude where were you camped at? We had a cat who looked just like Bruce who wandered though our camp for a little while during bruce's set. We named him bruce as well.....wonder if its the same cat....sorry to hear he didn't make it.

We were near Pod 8, near the top center of the map. Can't recall the campsite number but exiting centeroo from the Ferris wheel, and heading up main st (the entrance for trucks/vendors). Cross Bushy Branch and go to the last row of portapotties and bang a left. we were two rows in

I guess he just had a weak heart and when he went under anesthesia his heart stopped and then they were trying to revive him and he just wouldn't wake up...

Aw, that's so sad. But that's great that you guys were able to make his last couple weeks so great. He must have been so happy that he wandered into your campsite!

Wow that has to be the same cat. And we must have almost been neighbors. We were camped around 8. We were a couple rows back from the last group of porto johns on the left hand side of the road.
I talk to a buddy of mine a sec ago tellin him about this thread and I was mistaken earlier.....we weren't calling him bruce but the Boss. Anyway glad Bruce had a good few last days with you guys.

I am a cat lover so the fact that you took Bruce in is way cool in my book. You probably showed him more love in that little time than he had ever seen.

Is it possible that this was somebody else's cat? Either a roo-goer or a resident of Manchester? I mean it's cool if you saved him and all......but if it was someone's pet (lost or just walking around) I would feel horrible.
