Saying Goodbye to Sam



This morning I put my favorite cat, Sam, to sleep. It was a very sad moment, but he was sick for a long time and was really only a shadow of his former cat self. Sam was originally Christina and Kelly's cat. They found him at a state fair in Oregon. He was drinking out of a cup. He lived with them in Georgia and survived the wilds of the Northeast Georgia woods while they were on long camping trips.

In 1996 or so, Sam came to live in Waco. Not too long after that he developed diabetes and we had to give him shots for many years. Anyway, he was a great cat, super fluffy, great fur. He was sort of like a classic cat, like the kind you might see in a Ralph Lauren ad.

I'm so sorry about Sam, but it sounds like he had a full and interesting life.
