Boogerman

Our cat Horace died last week. He had been sick for awhile with some sort of virus that caused his to sneeze, but otherwise led a healthy, happy indoor/outdoor life. He had been our pet for about 15 years. It was sad not to be with him to say our goodbyes. We all made acrostic poems for our homeschool writing session. Jane also made an acrostic poem, but refused to let it be published on the blog. I also wrote one, but dedicated it to my mother who turned 70 May 23rd.

H issing at Max and Jane when toddlers.
O vercome, eventually, by their love for him
R esting peacefully now.
A lways my great friend
C uddling with us often
Every cat lovers’ dream, my horsey boy

H e was the best cat in the world
