When Dulcy died, after we'd lived together for 17 1/2 years, she gave me a book "A Cat's Life: Dulcy's Story" that was later published. The first words she gave me were the following: "At the end, all that matters is love. My love for my human and hers for me. I have planted the memories of our life together in her heart. She will find them there when I am gone, and they will comfort her." And Ray, those memories have comforted me. The love Simba has for you will never end. Peace.
