Re: Re: kitchen & anemone


Hi,

Peaches saw me through several lay offs from jobs and other things.  He kept
me alive and when he got sick I thought he was upset about the apartment and
the mess.  He hated a house in upheaval.

He was 20 years old and I had had him for ten years.  He loved to cuddle and
purr a storm.

I miss him every day.  Rex walks around whining.
