RIP Bo

Our cat, Bo, died last night. He was 19 years old so he had a long life. He had a pretty good life too. He was originally my wife's cat before we met. Kim(my wife) and I met Feb 14th 2001. The 1st time we went to her house she said that her cat, Bo, would probably stay hidden because he didn't like strangers. It wasn't 5 minutes later he ran out and jumped on my lap. My wife knew I must have been all right after that.

So for the past 6 and a half years he's had his butt parked on my lap. He pretty much became MY cat. He was a mess, spoiled rotten. Of course I accept the blame for that. I did spoil him but he deserved it. He was extremely lovable and had a wonderful personality. Although I'm sure he was convinced HE was God.

He'd been failing the last few months and we knew this day was coming but it's still hard. He was a very outgoing and social cat so it will be quite different around here. Thankfully I don't think he was in a lot of pain. I will definitely miss him. Hopefully we'll meet again someday Bo.
