Holly - February 7, 2011 - July 6, 2026

I said good-bye to my sweet baby cat Holly today. I wanted to write a loving tribute but I am too distraught.

I know that pain, pets are such a big part of our lives. I lost my 15 1/2 year old dog in January and It took a while but now I think more about the many cute things she did and the fun we shared than just the loss.
