**GypsyGirl** - I get the bath thing, we got lucky in that he will get in the tub on his own and is a very good boy getting the bath. Otherwise, at 90 lbs, I would not be doing it! He's the black dog in my profile picture. The big scary pit bull baby.

I've been away a couple days because we suffered a very sad loss. On Monday morning we made the heartbreaking decision to put our sweet cat Gus to sleep. Although he was only 8, he suffered congestive heart failure. He had a heart murmur since he was a kitten. At the end his heart failed very quickly. Cats are so stoic; it's difficult to know how much they hurt, but I don't think he suffered until right at the end. I was able to hold him while the vet put him to sleep. We are devastated and will be for a long time, but I can tell you he was loved and spoiled each day for the past 8 years. I know there are many pet lovers here, and you know this pain. Fortunately, I'm busy tutoring today and tomorrow and keeping my mind busy. Dinner tonight will be spaghetti and a salad. Then we'll be cheering on our Atlanta Hawks. Thanks to those who asked after Gus and share my sadness. I feel so supported by this little community. I am so sorry for your loss. What a sweet kitty Gus was. I hope your heart heals quickly❤️.

tuesdaysgone I’m so sorry about Gus. Took me 4 hours to come back to my sister’s for my brother’s appointment tomorrow morning. He can’t remember what they’re doing but told him no work for 2 weeks. Dinner is up in the air. Possibly leftovers from the party this weekend.

I'm so sorry to hear about Gus, tuesdaysgone. Its laundry day here so I'm cross stitching and catching up on HGTV between loads. Dinner will be focaccia sandwiches with vegetables and hummus. I cut the bread in half, make a giant sandwich with the whole loaf and then cut it into pieces. It is an easy dinner to make on a hot day before our biweekly girlfriend zoom happy hour at 4:30.

I'm sorry to hear about Gus, tuesdaysgone. I made Marion's Coconut Sweet Chilli Chicken with coconut rice, and satay chicken with homemade peanut dipping sauce. I made enough for MIL and FIL as well, and took it over to their house.

tuesdaysgone..... .I'm so very sorry about Gus !!!! I've always said it just isn't fair that our pets already live such short lives even when healthy---but even shorter if they're sick. Many ((( hugs ))))
