The era of Rosie and Sammy, my family's wonderful sister-brother cat duo, ended this morning with Sammy's passing. As thankful as I am to have had these two great cats in my life for so long, such losses never become easier to take. I've thought a lot today about all the times when Sammy was there for us with a friendly tap of the paw, a nose touch, or a paw lift. Rosie, who passed away in 2014, and Sammy were an endearing duo everyone in our family will miss immensely. I've posted more extensive thoughts on Sammy and Rosie on my other blog.
If you've had the heart-rending experience of losing one or more pets, here's wishing you strength, resilience, and frequent recall of the pleasant memories you had with them.
