Sad News - Spooky

We interrupt the regularly scheduled programming to bring you some sad news. Spooky, our cat, has not been doing well since mid-May. Developed a cough that kept getting worse... vet thought it might be asthma but the corticosteroid shot didn't do much... and the coughing got worse. So it was likely a tumour.

Spooky has been with us (well... with Mama) since 2002... They were just 8 weeks old when we got them...

They came from the animal shelter and were covered in fleas!!

But they washed up OK...

Spooky even tolerated Rusty!

But they did get into trouble... even Spooky... her she is helping herself to a new bag of cat food...

 And swinging from the hanging lamps... baby cat...

She was such a cute kitten...

We had to put Rascal down two years ago and... hard as it was... we had to make the same decision with Spooky. She wasn't eating or drinking anymore and the coughing was getting very, very bad.

 Goodbye beautiful Spooky... I am dispensing lots of tissues to the humans these days...

  2. So sorry to hear about Spooky. Love the picture of her hanging on the lamp. Looks like she had a great life with your crew.

    1. She did have a great life! And she was such a brat cat... There's one pic where she had an empty kleenex box stuck on her head... curiosity and all that.
