I'm so sorry, Tep
They should film that story and show it every Christmas.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Oh Steph. You and Tim have taken such good care of Slinky for so long. She has had a good... no, an excellent run. I'm sorry this has to happen and that it is so hard.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
It does suck. I am confident that you are looking out for what is best for Slinky, if that helps at all.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I'm so sorry, Steph.

I'm sorry, Steph. Even when a pet has had a long, full life, it's hard to face the end.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Teppy, I'm so sorry. There is no way this is not hard. It's clear from your posts that you and Tim love and care for your animals and they have a wonderful life. That's a wonderful thing. The flip side of that wonderful thing is the sadness when you lose them.

Oh, Steph. I'm so sorry you're going through that.
The parents are on the west side, near Hwy 6. It's actually one of the highest areas in the city (which is like 50 ft above sea level, but still) so I'm not worried yet.
