    I love how the people just set down the spinner and go about their business.

    edit: on my fourth? fifth? watch I notice a tuft of fur floating off to the right around 11 seconds. 😄

    The spinner is so fun. I wish I had that energy.

    I have the day off today to get my taxes (finally) signed and have a long cry with my therapist. I had to let Jacques go yesterday. He had two massive seizures on Saturday and yesterday was hungry but then within an hour it just came out every where. I know it was the right thing to. do, but I am devastated. He was my best companion for almost 20 years. There is a huge hole in my heart. I was so lucky to have him for so long. But I will miss him terribly.

      You have my sincere sympathy may you find comfort in the fact that Jacques had a wonderful life with you.

      Sending you lots of love and healing purrs. It’s so very hard to say goodbye. We never get enough time with our babies.

    Ronaldo is wonderful, as is that crazy spinner. And I’m glad that mom and her dog got reunited–maybe social media does have some power for good.

    These happy stories bring some much-needed smiles. We’ll all be mourning Jacques with you, Tara–let us know how we can help. Thank you for sharing his pictures and his stories with us.
