REQUIES-CAT IN PACE
Pishalou, 1987-2006.
It is my sad duty to announce the passing of Pishalou, Elder Daughter’s boyfriend’s family’s cat, at the advanced age of 19.
Some of my Esteemed Readers may remember Pishalou, a fearsome-looking kitty whose horrific appearance detracted not one whit from her family’s love for her. Her looks were earned honorably, the result of advanced age...helped along by a kidney condition for which she was under a veterinarian’s care.
Pishalou expired peacefully in her sleep. Not for her the heartwrenching Final Trip to the veterinarian’s office; not for her the Needle-Borne Quietus. To pass away in one’s sleep is the kiss of God, a gift all too rarely bestowed on our animal companions.
Our condolences to Pishalou’s human friends. To Pishalou, ave atque vale. We hardly knew ye, kitty...
