A black day

All of the other unimportant events get put into some sort of perspective when you lose a pet. We had to have our cat Rosie put to sleep today, I held her while they administered the injection and wept like a child. We have had her for 13 of her 18 years, and she had developed a tumour on her liver. Had eaten nothing for close to 10 days. She leaves a huge void, vastly beyond her meagre frame.
