Saying Goodbye Again

 




I remember the day in 2010 we brought you home.

You had a brother and a sister who were your whole world.


When your other sister Casey passed away in 2017, it took some years, but you eventually gained a new brother, Poe. 

And now, today, at 13 years old, it is your time to go. 

We weren’t ready to say goodbye. 

The picture on the top is one of the first pictures I ever took. The picture on the bottom is the last, taken just shortly after his birthday in July 2023.

Ziggy, you were loved by so many. I wasn’t ready for you to go, but I’m thankful for all of the years I got to be your mama. Run free with Cain and Casey now. I know they missed their puppy kitty brother.

A Memory of Cain & My Need to Move On

Image
A few days before Cain had passed away he must have had a chill because he was shivering. It was not like a seizure shake. It was rather chilly in our house. I remember Big M grabbing his sweater to put on him and me telling him not to. I just did not want Cain to freak out. Big M did not listen and when I came around the corner, this is what I saw. I had asked for a photo but I never saw him take it. When I was scrolling through the photos on my phone - this is what I found.

Meet Tink

Image
After months and months of waiting, praying, and praying some more, we finally have a new addition to our family. This is "Tink" (yes, short for Tinkerbell) and she is about 9 weeks old. She is a Chug. Part Pug part  Chihuahua.   I was looking at rescues, adoption centers, Craigslist, newspapers and various other places people post dogs. Every time we found one we liked it had issues with other dogs or cats. Then I couldn't decide if I wanted an older dog for Casey, or a puppy.
