Hobbes is not doing well. He took a turn for the worse this past weekend and can barely stand or walk. We keep trying to make him as comfortable as possible, but he insists on wandering. He is so fragile and weak...
Swimmer and I have been snivelling for the past couple of days and we have made arrangements for the veterinarian to visit the house and, ostensibly, bring the suffering Hobbes' life to an end. I has a major sad.
We've been buddies for seventeen years now. He has followed me around the neighborhood and kept watch over the doings of the community. He was a pal to the bunny and an empty threat to the hens....through it all, he persevered to assure that fuzziness and purrs were always readily available in this household. He shall be sorely missed.
*sniff*

Oh no I am so sorry Sounds like he had a great, happy long life tho. I know that probably does not bring much comfort now but I hope it will eventually.

The fuzzwad is dead. Long live the fuzzwad.
I guess this makes me a ronin, as I no longer have an overlord.
Hobbes finished his life on his own, without assistance. Ten minutes before the veterinarian arrived. *sigh* She just confirmed it for us.
Farewell, Hobbes.
