BUMMER POST WARNING

seeing my parents' dog / my last childhood dog before I moved out for the last time today. he's been in declining health for a while but developed cancer within the few months and it has quickly taken its toll. he's an old man and had a nice long comfy life (and outlived our expectations based on how fat he was for most of it) but it's still so heart wrenching. he was always the most psycho energetic dog but now he's too weak to even get up and greet me. currently laying with him on the ground next to the AC vent, his favorite place.

here's a pic from last year when he was doing a bit better, and a much older pic of him with Millie where they both look so young :(

love ya Spike, gonna miss ya bud.

jack, my 19.5 year old baby cat

bump for a really sad bummer post :(


yesterday, i said goodbye to Jack at 1pm. he passed peacefully in my arms. the last few months his kidney disease got really bad and uncontrollable, even though we were trying everything we could to slow down the progression. on monday morning, some really concerning symptoms started to show, and i knew it was time.

i've had jack since he was about 3 weeks old, found in a garbage can outside with his siblings that did not make it. i had no idea how to take care of a kitten that small, but a vet helped me get set up with everything i needed to nurse him back to life. i was only 19 then, and now i am 40. i spent nearly 21 years with this sweet animal, over half of my life. my heart is pretty shattered from losing him as well as his kitty sister Weasel in august 2022 from cancer. i know they are running and being silly kittens again together, free of pain and old age. it feels like a pretty big chapter in my life has closed. :(








i love you, baby Jackie

i’m definitely feeling some of this today. all day i kept feeling like i’m forgetting to do something. at the end, he was had medication to manage, fed smaller meals throughout the day, making sure the litterbox was always clean because he had a tough time not accidentally stepping in dirty spots. it was a lot of very little things like that to keep him happy and feeling good, but it’s weird to have a full day without that.

i’m so sorry, synthy. it’s especially rough when you are so bonded from early kitten age, and you will never forget how that love feels.
