Steph's Glass is Half Full

Optimistic (and often pessimistic) raves and rants about the many things that can go wrong with an old house, cats who leave me hairballs each day, a job I love but get burned out with and my wonderful husband who I at times, want to hiss at. Also included are my yays and nays about my travels into the world when performing necessary tasks such as grocery shopping, being thrown together with complete strangers, thrown together with strangers and their strangeness.

Farewell Rebound

Rebound (left)
May 3, 2002-November 19, 2008

We euthanized our Rebound today. His pneumonia was worse and this morning he had a hard time breathing due to fluid in his abdomen. As sad as it was for us we knew the best thing for Rebound was to euthanize him.

He was named "Rebound" at four weeks of age because he bounced off the walls, always playing and running around the house with his brother and two sisters. His brother "CatintheHat" and sis "Touche" were adopted together at eight weeks of age. Since Rebound and Star were rather sickly we kept them. They have always been not quite healthy but Rebound loved life and even when he didn't feel well he still asked for his snuggles...except this time when he showed no interest in anything.

Farewell Rebound. We love you.
