Stinky

It turns out that it was serious. The vet knew when she talked with me this morning. There is only one cat affliction that presents in this way.

Stinky had a heart defect. He threw a clot last night that paralyzed his legs. There was no blood circulation in his legs.

No known treatments. Nothing to do.

He and I spent time together just talking and loving. And then I helped him leave this life.

He was our special boy. I am glad that we were able to make his last year and a half happy. I’m glad that he chose to share it with us.

I miss him terribly. There’s a terrible hole in my heart and in this house.

And now...I have to tell the lad.
