The DW's cat has been suffering from some sort of feline-unique thing for some time. Similar to a congestive heart condition. Well, Gracie (the cat) had to be taken in this morning in order to have the suffering permanently relieved. While I am not a cat lover by any means, I was crying because of the pathetic state she had deteriorated to just overnight. The poor thing could hardly walk and was squalling for my wife. DW and DS are now in a state of grief. What a crummy way to start the week.
