I had to put one of my cats to sleep today. He was very sick. The end was peaceful; I thank God for caring professionals, to use a cliche. He was a difficult cat, always sickly, quite ill-mannered, semi-feral, and had a questionable grasp of potty-training, but he was a warm bed companion in winter, and very loyal to me for having rescued him from a shelter.
He is survived by his roommate Henry Skylark von Barc H., who didn't usually get along with him, and me, who is sad, but glad that he is no longer suffering or frightened.
G'night Jimmy.
Welcome to The Cahokian... A thousand years ago Cahokia — across the Mississippi from what is now St. Louis — was one of the biggest cities in the world. Now it's an empty green spot next to the highway. I'm a middle-aged gay man living in New York City, center of the world, future footnote on somebody's future map. Welcome to the new world.
Very sad news indeed, i have only had to have one cat put to sleep, so i know it can be a very sad time. I have opened my blog of exchange, if you fancy becoming a member then contact me on 030161@gmail.com
