There's been no change with my Cuddles, updated [View all]

So I go in at 130pm today to say goodbye to my dear Baby Boy. Poor Shadow, she looks lost, waiting for him to walk in the door like he has every day before.

I'll post a eulogy later.

I'm here at the vet hang out with him for awhile, thanks to SheltieLover for the suggestion.
