Charlie

We lost our kitty Charlie today. She was 15 years old and had entered kidney failure. She wasn't making it to the litter box anymore, and she was getting skinnier and skinnier. If you knew her before, you knew she was built like a brick. My mom called her fat. Today, she was all bone. Nothing to her. I bet she barely weighed 5 lbs. :(

So, we made the hard decision to have our vet friend put her to sleep today. It was harder than I thought it would be to make that decision. B-man cried a lot. As did I. He has been with her since he was born. I have had her 11 years. But we felt so bad that she was getting so much worse. Good ol' Josh - he took her in this morning so that I didn't have to. 

Goodbye, Charlie-girl. You were a good cat!!
