It's a sad day today- my apartment mate Boogie's cat Priscilla died last night. It was never established exactly what was wrong with Priscilla (Boogie has CFS, and funds for vet exams and such were limited); she began wasting away a couple of months ago, until... Zorikh told me about it while I was unwinding from the Pennsylvania job; I don't think I'll ever forget the incongruous sound of London Calling pounding away in the background as I tried to console Boogie, who's been alternately sobbing and sleeping since I got home. (Priscilla died while at the vet's office with Boogie, while I was in Pennsylvania; as I still dream of her other cat Midnight occasionally, this is, for me, something of a mercy.) When I come fully awake, in a couple of hours, I'll see how Boogie is doing; between this and Mom's move, has been an incredibly draining week for me. Poor Boogie; I can't imagine what it's been like for her.

I'm sorry to hear of the kitty-cat's death. Even if Boogie had funds, sometimes it's very hard to know what to do for a kitty, to know if you are giving quality of life or making life unbearable for the creature. I'm sure that Boogie gave Priscilla much love and a happy life.

*Snowfall* for Boogie.

Oh hun, I'm so sorry for Boogie, but I'm glad she has you to comfort her. I shall keep her and Priscilla in my thoughts. It's so tough when a pet dies.

Thank you, Ellie. It really does hearten me to see owners like Boogie or you, who give their pets such loving care in the tough times.
