spook

 We had to say goodbye to our black cat Spook this week.  We knew the day was quickly approaching, but still sad nonetheless.  Probably back in September I had brought him in for what seemed to be an eye infection.  Both the vet and I noticed that his cheek looked swollen too.  We hoped some drops would take care of it, but it didn't.  It was a cancerous tumor that eventually took the whole left side of his face.  We'll miss him around here....Dave mostly, as Spook was his kitty for 13 years.
