To quote a wise frog named Kermit, "It's alright, children. Life is made up of meetings and partings." When I first met Luca he was 13 years old. Last night, at 16, we said goodbye to him. I knew entering into our relationship that it would be a finite one, but I also knew that I was going to give him the most banger retirement that I possibly could. Luca, in his ornery, smug, rascally glory, was loved every day of his life with me. But now his face was full of cancer that made it hard for him to eat and breathe. We wanted to let him go while he was still himself. He faded away in the arms of his mom who cherished him. Who could ask for a more comforting end? I'm in pain but I'm OK. It hurts to say goodbye to a dear friend. True love is painful but is there a truer love than that between a human and a pet? Would I adopt another senior pet in the future? Absolutely. A short, awesome friendship is just as, if not more, rewarding than a long relationship. Love you

Hi all. Liz's sweet old cat Zampa was able to go to the emergency vet the other night, and she's been stabilized (the cat, not Liz, Liz is still freaked out). Fortunately, Zampa has been doing very well since Saturday, and is going to see our family vet tomorrow. Meanwhile, in other falling-apart-cat drama, my own elderly feline Luca is doing pretty badly. He was adopted as a senior and we knew his time with us would be finite, but he's taken a downward turn as of very recently. So anything left over from the Zampa misadventure will be used to treat Luca. Thank you to everyone who showed up for me and my family when asked for help, whether it was from purchases, donations or kind words. Zampa is a tender marshmallow of an elderly baby and Luca is a rotten old cagey bastard who loves only me. We'll cherish them for as long as we have them in our lives. Also I have a twice younger, much healthier cat named Sweet Pepper, and she says hi, incidentally! She's the

Do you happen to like They Might Be Giants? The band? I know you like Ben Folds and The Beatles, so I was wondering if we had another band/musician in common.

I sure do. A lot of TMBG's catalogue is surprisingly poignant. Of course it's funny, but it's also deep and heartfelt.

Probably the biggest bands/singers of my young adulthood were TMBG, Ben Folds, Fiona Apple, Barenaked Ladies, and hipster swing bands like Squirrel Nut Zippers and Brian Setzer's Orchestra. Beatles and Billy Joel are perennial.
