Some Sad News

Cosmo 
2000-2017
We lost our sweet little Cosmo cat last Thursday. When he was diagnosed with cancer last November, we had no way of knowing how much longer he had to live. His life since then had been pretty good despite the diagnosis. He still ate, drank out of the faucet (his favorite), sat on laps, and trotted for treats. Then about two weeks ago, we noticed a decline. And last Wednesday, a further decline told us it was time to see the vet. After a long talk with her, we came to the decision that all pet owners dread. He lived a long, happy life and that is what we will be glad for. We'll have many happy memories. Even so, it's just a sad time. Thanks for listening.

    Cosmo was a handsome cat and I'm sorry for your loss. My 14 year old Chessie cat died this summer and I miss her so much. Thankfully another cat adopted us the previous year so it does make it easier when you have another cat to love. Mary

      I'm sorry to hear about your cat, Mary. We do have another cat, Moxie, who is 15 years old. I was offered a kitten yesterday, but Moxie is a bit set in her ways and it might upset her. So we'll leave things as is, and let her be happy.

    Some animals, like some men, leave a trail of glory behind them. They give their spirit to the place where they have lived, and remain forever a part of the rocks and streams and the wind and sky.—Marguerite Henry

    Sorry for your loss.
