In Memoriam

Oz
February 16, 2000 - July 1, 2012

You're never prepared. While Oz had been having some medical issues, we really thought medication and food adjustments were going to be enough. You're never prepared to lose a furbaby. As my friend told me: "They steal your heart on the first day and break it on the last." He's right.
Oz & Willow were such little kitties when we brought them home on LoML's birthday 12 years ago!
So hard to believe he's not with us any more...time will tell...so far Willow seems to be hanging in there okay, but it's weird. 

All of the pix in this post are courtesy of J. Frazz Photography. We're so glad that he was able to photograph all the kids when he was here! He got beautiful pix....and he captured cute moments like these:
 
Did you know their mouths would open that wide in a yawn?!?

I know folks who say they'll never "have another" after losing a pet...they'll "never go through that again". While I respect that that's a valid response for some people, I personally would never want to miss the joy and the love that animals give us so freely. Not one minute of it.
