I'm sorry to hear about Crackers' passing, hon. Loved that kitty. And Bandit's an old coot but he's got the heart of a young lion. Whatever happens, you've done good by him and Crackers both.
We also suffered a pet death. Moses died a week ago. He was nine and a half, eighty-five in dog years, I guess. They say dogs his size only live to be an average of eight years so he lived an extra one and a half so I know he had a full life. It's just really sad and the house isn't the same without that big lug parking himself in front of everyone. *soulful smile*
Hope to hear from you soonly!
