In Memory Of Patches and Brandi

Patches, our cat, her health has gone down hill very quick over the past week.  After several vet visits, x-rays and blood tests with no results it was time for her suffering to end. This was a damn hard decision and hurt a lot for Carol & I.

Brandi, Patches’ buddy,  health has been going down hill because of her age of 15 years old.  Since they were ever lasting buddies, it was only appropriate  for them to continue their travels together and without us.

MEMORIES…………thru tears……..

Patches had her favorite warm spots during the winter.DSC_0141 DSC_0001 SDC12050
