MARG! Yesterday was a sad day for me. Had totake my 16 year old cat to the Vet’s and have itput to sleep’ It quit eating and was down to onlysix pounds. Will miss him as he was like a familymember. I’m surprised your Greyhound is stillliving. That breed usually doesn’t make it pastten due to their small heart. You will miss himto when he leaves this world.
I’m sorry about your kitty. We had to put our little 16 year old dog down on 11-12. She started having serial seizures, and required so much medicine to stop the seizures that she couldn’t even open her eyes. I held her in my lap, and petted her, and told her what a good dog she had been.
Yeah, the saucy toss is also a maneuver that takes plenty of charm training. The way Broomie did it wouldn’t have worked even if she’d started off with the right hairstyle. Sigh.
Thank you, everyone for sharing your stories of older pets, and for your sympathy. It’s sad to see them go, but we know that they had happy lives, and were well loved.

I believe that she did.

Condolences to both Llewellenbruce and margueritem on the loss of loved pets.
……………………………………………………………………….Broomie, you don’t do “The Hair Toss” until after you’ve had your hair styled!

When I saw this strip at another newspaper, all I could think of was; Olivia probably had hair drawn with a chisel marker and Broomie a 0.5 pencil.

It said toss, not TOSS!

Will this do? My first thought was that Broomie brought a whole new meaning to the term “hair net”.

Don’t feel bad, Broom-Hilda. I am also looking at getting my hair styled because it is also a pain.
