RIP Rudy
I'm still trying to absorb this news myself - our sweet cat, Rudy, died this morning, quite unexpectedly. He was clearly sick when I saw him this a.m., and luckily Larry was off today and was able to take him to the vet. But he died right after they got there, of heart failure. He was 15 years old (or would have been, next month), and never a svelte figure. He was undoubtably sick in the last day or two, but he's so mellow and unobtrusive, I hadn't noticed. I'm so glad he went quickly and didn't suffer, but I wish I'd had a chance to give him some extra TLC before he left us for good. He was always a sweet cat, but he's gotten a lot less attention since we had Caleb and then Alana and then Roxy (our dog). Please have a kind thought for him today as he journeys to a better place where he gets scratched and petted around the clock and his world is full of cantalope (which he loved) and cat treats.
