I'm so very sad for you all. Our time with our fur family is never long enough.

I wept as I remembered that beautiful brindle big head love machine. Thank you for being in touch with your own humanity, Bill.

I wept for you. And Hendrix and anyone who loved the guy.

But realistically, I was also struck by the fact that this day is coming for us and Sophie. How soon? No way to know. But the loss will be enormous. Her joints crack when she gets up. She sleeps a lot. She is almost as gray as me.

We'll try to live in the present moment and not worry too much. Grateful we are for her.

Thanks for sharing your grief and love for another creature.
