onyx

grace number twenty nine
today i am most grateful for my deceased cat named onyx

basically, onyx was kind of like a "big brother." that cat was in my family before i was even in my family. onyx lived until he was about 17 years old and we had to put him to sleep because he had kidney failure. it has actually been 13 years since he died. ridiculous. i cannot believe it has been so long. anyway. i try to honor his memory. i loved him terribly.

    I had a black lab named Maggie during my entire childhood. We got her when I was 3, and since I'm an only child, she became my sister. We spent every day and every night together. She died the summer before I left for college. Thankfully, my parents handled it and told me afterwards because I don't think I would've been able to deal with seeing her in pain, etc. RIP Onyx!
