Diz is dead.
Put down in care after an illness and a stroke.

No strokes from me; he died by injection on Monday. My precious rehab too important to interrupt.
I didn't know when I told them not to tell me how he was, back in September.
I thought I might be bothered with tales of sniffles while I was trying to give us a future.

Instead my only success, my only good thing died with a stranger.

I know I wrote him in a bad light. So often.
But my second purchase out of rehab was catfood (1st was my bus ticket)

He died without me and how can I forgive that?
Nothing's right I'm torn.

And this? I can't stop thinking about this. Of course you loved him and of course you wrote of his cat antics. That's what cats DO, that's what cats ARE...and to us cat lovers your writings of him were really funny. I don't know how many times I laughed and compared him to Toonces or Gaines (the not at all mild mannered fellas) or even Taj and Madison (the mild mannered girl and boy).

They all have their own personalities and they can be so annoying, then so loving...and usually very funny. You loved him, and he loved you. That's cat heaven right there. The only bad thing is we don't get to have them forever, and it hurts tons, I know.

I hope you're doing OK I keep thinking about this. Hang in there, will you?

I am sorry to sound harsh, but your rehab is a hell of a lot more important than a cat. I don't mean to hurt you. I only want you to realize you mean far more to everyone and your recovery should be your goal. Sundae, I love you and your health far outweighs a cat.
