My mate and I had to make the hardest decision of our lives today, and it was actually one of the first times I REALLY saw my mate cry. We had to say goodbye to the largest member of our family today, my cat Spike. He had severe bladder disease and it hit him fast. We would have had to spend 3,000 dollars for two surgeries that may or may not work for a period of time with other complications in his future. He was only 5 years old, but in those short 5 years, he managed to touch the hearts of MANY MANY people. He had a small not really used blog as well as his own FB page, and everyone that had met him in his life loved him dearly. He was the world's most tolerant cat, and had a very funny sense of humor, as well as was very vocal. He had a permanent mush grumple face, even when he was happy, that no one could resist. Spike will be surely missed, and it will take me a LONG time to get over the loss of my best friend. He always sat on the back of my chair as I did my art, and things just won't be the same. Our other cat Desmond will miss him dearly as well. My mate and I are going to bury him on the farm where I grew up that is still owned by my family tonight. This truly has been the worst week of my life.. What a befitting end to it.
