so, this is a two part emotion I'm sharing. on December 23rd, my cat Pico left us. He was 15 and had been dealing with diabetes caused by an acromegaly, a little tumor on his brain that caused his blood sugar and other things to do weird stuff.
(I've tried to hide the harder stuff under a read more, I'm just going to do this stream of thought and include the parts that kitten is adding and what she's doing as I sit with her in our spare room.)
