Sorry I havn't been around this week, it's been a tough one.
Our cat George was hit by a car and killed earlier this week. We recently moved from a quiet court to a fairly busy street. People on the court knew George and would stop or slow down for him, not so lucky in the new place. He must have misjudged the speed of the cars, and one clipped him.
A good samaritan saw it happen and had the decency to get him off the street before my kids saw him. One of the hardest things I've had to do was carry him home across the very street he was hit on. Then tell my wife and kids he was gone. He was a stray, my third and last cat. I think he found me. He was more like a dog than a cat. He would come running and bound up to you when you called him, almost wagging his tail. He was a big suck that loved kids, you could carry him around like a baby. He was around 8 years old when he died.
I buried him in our yard. I'll be around, just need to heal my broken heart for a bit.
