Life ended as I knew it September 9th, 2008. I had to put my dog down. Making the decision was the worst thing I have ever had to do. Lung cancer that spread to his spine and at the age of 11 plus years, and letting him go with dignity and trying not to be greedy, "quality versus quantity". I will always love him - Chief Shadow Worrier June 1, 1997 -September 8, 2008
Fast forward February 2nd, 2009, I took Dakota in to have her leg checked out as she was limping and one vet said she has soft tissue damage and I wasn't convinced. I said either bone cancer or some other type of cancer. It was bone cancer. I opted to put her down right there and then, I refused to be greedy and keep her, "quality versus quantity". My heart was still hurting from losing Chief, losing Dakota, all, but killed me.
Life as I knew it then, was gone. They were excellent fur-friends, my kids and I miss them something terrible. Cheyenne my cat and I will survive.
Looking back, both Chief and Dakota were the last in their litters, Cheyenne was abandoned by her cat mother. Call me a sucker for the unwanted.
When my heart warmed up, I "hatched" Inkozosana Sibongile and Nduna Malaika.
