Boxer~ May 23, 2005-March 26, 2026

It is with a sad and heavy heart that I share with you that Boxer was put down on March 26.  He fought the good fight against a cancer he didn't deserve, yet beat the odds against it.  He was given 3 months to live, with a rare (for cats) and aggressive cancer.  He lived almost three years since that diagnosis.  Unbelievable.  If there was one thing that boy was, it was being strong willed.  He was such a force of nature.  And an angry one at that.  He was difficult to love being so stubborn, pushy, demanding and obnoxious, but somehow he found a way into my heart.  He was 100% cat...and then some.  And I loved and hated him for that.  Definitely one of a kind.  I'm so grateful that he came into my life for those 20, almost 21 years that he was here.  

Forever in my heart... Boxer-boo    

Blaze- 5 year anniversary

She was our littlest 24 Paw.

She was an avid hunter and full of spitfire.

She had an hyper anxious electricity about her.

We have always been grateful that her previous owners brought her back to us.

She had quite the fascination with Boxer and Leia.

She was loved.

She was Blaze.

And she more than fit her name.

and then some.

Can't believe it has been five years that she has been gone.

Love you Sweet Pea.  ♥

 

Princess Leia~ August 10, 2006-March 4, 2026

 

This past Wednesday I had to make the hardest decision I've ever made.  I had to let go my little Princess Leia.  We got her when she was 3 months old and she lived for 19 years and 5 months.  She had kidney disease for the last 7 years of her life and we managed it with special food and supplements.  The last month she was not doing well and she went into renal failure.  She was the longest living animal I have ever owned, besides Boxer, who's a year older.  I really struggled with making THE decision, but knew in my heart I could not let her go on this way.  And we did the only kind thing we could do for her, by letting her go.  I know she is at peace now and free from her ill-ridden body.  

Run free, baby girl.  I love you ♥
