I would like to honor my sweet boy Tobey, who left us too soon, in 2008. He came to us from a local animal shelter at six months of age. He was a strong-willed, but very affectionate boy. Olive, who was a kitten then, took immediately to him, and when you saw one of them, the other one was always close by.
Tobey loved to knead blankets. This is my favorite memory of him. The vet visits - not so much. He would turn into a Tasmanian devil.
One day, he stopped eating and hid from us. I rushed him to the emergency clinic, where he was diagnosed with cardiomyopathy. Two weeks before this, he had his wellness exam, and he received a clean bill of health. Unfortunately, his condition was too advanced to save him, and 24 hours after the diagnosis he passed away.
Strangely, Olive was diagnosed with the same condition, luckily in time, though. Olive searched for him for quite some time, and together, we mourned Tobey's passing. Tobey, you will always be in our hearts.
