1993 - 2008
Rascal passed away yesterday afternoon.
He'd become really quite poorly & we'd tried all avenues & it was time to let him go; we didn't want him to be in pain or distress.
He was at home with myself & Mr B, just where he always loved to be & he knew that he was safe & loved.
We got him from a rescue centre when he was two (we never knew his birthday & always celebrated it on Nov 4th - the day he came into our lives) & he's always been an absolute joy; a real character. Always so happy & bouncy & sweet & silly. He was so very affectionate & always wanted to be with us, getting involved with everything & generally being completely beautiful - outside & in.
My heart is breaking but we're privileged to have had him - we were a happy little family together - & these twelve & a half years have been wonderful. Our lives are richer for having loved & been loved by him.
I'd like to write more but I really am just so devastated.
Thank you so much to everyone who has been in touch during Rascal's illness & been so incredibly supportive & loving - it really does mean so much to both myself & Mr B. I'm sorry that I haven't had chance to reply but I've read every comment & email & they've all been such a help. Thank you.
