Goodbye Annabelle

 You'll find an entry from May 4, 2006 where I talk about a kitten I found. Well, 18 years later and she's become part of my life.

It's a different life than the one of transition I described back then. Now, it's steady with a wife and a kid. And still Annabelle.

However, that will end tomorrow at 3:45pm as we have an appointment to end her suffering via euthanasia. Balancing kidney disease and thyroid issues has become too tough for us and the 18+ year old cat.

She's been a good cat. She will be missed. By me, certainly. I've known her for 18 years. But also by Bailey, who has only known her for the span of her 6 years. She's been infatuated with the loyal cat who is always by her side, even though she doesn't have the energy or mobility she did a few years ago. She's still been a playmate. Bailey doesn't know a world without Annabelle. It's going to be hard.

Weird time to update my blog? But perhaps it's closure. I doubt there are readers. So I guess it's for me.



Goodbye Annabelle.
