The younger version of my 13.5 year old thesis dog. Would never have finished my PhD without him and as he ages I'm less sure what I'll do without him. Your cat will stay alive in your memories and pictures long after she crosses the rainbow bridge. Sending comforting thoughts your way.

I carefully planted (discarded and left to rot) a pumpkin in my garden (perpetual plot of weeds) last year, and through much care (complete indifference) and attention (utter neglect) am proud (stunned) to announce I (nature) grew a pumpkin.
