This is new. Watching a British murder mystery and she's taken over Milo's designated spot. My wife is jealous of the gatos bond to me, but I work at home and they're always around.

Maddie is winding down , her rear legs are starting to not work. Had to help her on stairs. I let her pal go too long and won’t make that same mistake.

Maddie adores cats. She lets them play “ bat the dog nose” and then quickly reaches in with a big face lick. Her friend Grayson loved that and would play for hours. On walks she would see cats and would know how to approach them without freaking them out.

I had to make the hard call to the vet today. The kids will join us on Friday to celebrate Maddie’sLife.

It’s going to be a rough one.

That's tough. I've never had to do that. My wife has, as a kid.
