Dearest Tuxedo Stan and family,
You have touched my life so much in the few weeks I have seen your page on Facebook, you were a beautiful cat here on earth and I know you are bringing all that beauty to heaven with you. My meezer Romeo and I say Rest In Peace little fellow you are much loved and we won’t forget you!

So very terribly sorry for your loss. It is heart-breaking to say good bye to our family members with shorter lives, but I am so glad he is not suffering and that he was with the people he loved and in his favorite place as he passed.
I am so sad for you to hear of the passing of your beloved Stan. I’m so glad for the awareness Stan has raised for abused and neglected animals. Godspeed, Stan. Run free at the Rainbow Bridge. You will be reunited with your loved ones.
I,m so sort your baby has lost his battle with a terrible disease. I,m sure he had a wonderful life with you. I watched his campaign with great delight. I have 6 rescue kitties and there isn,t a day goes by that I don,t wish I could more. RIP Sam. From Kitty Girl, Moo, Jake, Alex, Lily, and Elfie.
RIP Stan. You were more of a politician than most humans and you most definitely fulfilled one of your most valuable campaigns. I hope all human politicians follow your example. Take care and have fun at the “Rainbow Bridge”. ❤
Rest in peace and free of pain precious Stan. You were loved by so many. We will never forget you. Your minion Bethany will be well taken care of here in San Antonio, Texas.
Thank you all for your support. Tuxedo Stan has many fans around the world. It has been a pleasure sharing his silly antics with all of you. It helps to ease the pain of his loss knowing that many others are grieving along with us.

The news of Stan’s passing drew my first hot tears in a good long while. Thank you for facilitating his important political work. He will be remembered with love by many in Halifax.

RIP beautiful Stanley. Thanks for bringing the plight of homeless cats to the media and fulfilling your campaign promises with such panache. You will be greatly missed by all catdom and I surely hope to meet your grace at the Rainbow Bridge someday.
His worship was an inspiration to all and his cause will live on with supporters and minions around the world. He will be missed by all those who knew him. hugs, purrs and headboinks.
I am so sorry that cancer has taken Stan from his family and from the world. It is so tragic that his precious life was cut so short. I made a donation in his memory, I cannot think of what else I can do except wipe the tears from my eyes.
I am so sorry Stan… my KC battled lymphoma as well for 10 months, from small cell to large.. I am so sad to learn this news today. You will be so very missed… You have done so much to bring awareness and hope for neglected and abused animals. Sending you much love always, Stan. My heart goes out to all in your family…
We, his Worship’s supporters, are greatful for the sacrifice his family has made in sharing this wonderful little man from Catopia with the world. He’s left a very large paw print on society. We look forward to supporting Earl’s fight for the cause.
You were blessed to have Tuxedo Stan in your lives, and as Canadians we were honoured. You have my deepest sympathies. And thank you for continuing Stan’s legacy. It’s up to Earl Grey to save the day!
I am so sorry to learn that Stan has lost his battle with cancer. My cat Barney (also a very handsome tuxedo) joins me in extending our very deepest sympathy.
Dear Hugh and Kathy,
I am so sorry for the loss of your special little guy. I have loved reading about his life and applaud the two of you for all of your wonderful work. I have left a small donation to spay day in honor of Stan. His life may have been too brief but it was filled with love and security.
I am sorry for your loss; my own tuxedo Wylder died of cancer last year at the age of 9. He liked looking at Stan’s exploits on Facebook, and we avidly followed him too.
Stan affected real change and I know the world is a better place because he was in it. 🙂 Godspeed, little guy.
We have followed Stan on facebook for quite sometime now (Jane + Robert Hutchinson) and were saddened by the news on Sunday. I have made a donation to Stan’s cause on behalf of our 2 “boys” Google and Yahoo, who send their love and hugs to Earl Gray and all of you. Stan will never be forgotten.
RIP Stan. I will miss reading about you, but know you will always remembered. I enjoyed following your updates on Facebook. I was very sad to read about your passing:( I know your brother will make you proud.
As someone else quoted on the Tuxedo Party page, from Doctor Who, “This song is ending, but the story never ends.” We are so saddened by the loss of Stan, but so grateful for all he achieved in his short life. We know Earl Grey will be a dedicated and diligent leader of the Tuxedo Party, and we will work with him. jodi and the fur kids: Loki, Mungus, Doodle and Tiny Timbit. And of course, Minion Doctor.
Such terrible news! It is amazing how much public attention he brought to the feline over population issue. He has served his species well. He has done more with his life than many people have. He was a very special kitty and from what I’ve seen he had a very luxurious lifestyle. I hope you can take some comfort in knowing how how much of an impact he has had on humans and cats alike. Also that you have given him and his brother the best home they could hope for. I wish Earl the best in continuing the campaign and am very sorry for your loss.
WOW! Lots of love and support from far and wide. Thank you all for taking the time to leave a message. We miss Stan more than you can imagine but we are keeping busy with Earl Grey’s campaign for premier. As Stan would say “because neglect still isn’t working!”
I am very sorry to hear of the passing of Stan. It is a great loss to us all. I am thinking of you Hugh and Kathy. His Worship has found another great Catopia. His memory will live on here on earth.
