Today is a very sad day in our family. Hans' family cat, George, who they have had for 18 years, passed away. He's been ill for some time. Just last weekend when we were visiting in Houston, we noticed he did not look well and seemed to be in pain.
It's a horrible thing to lose him. Hans can't really remember a time without that cat. And Oliver thought George was his best friend (I'm not sure George agreed). We are glad he's no longer hurting, but sad to see him go.
We'll miss you, kitty.
If he was in pain, it is for the best. Unfortunately, in death (even of pets), it seems all the pain they were suffering is just transferred to human owners for a brief moment.
