Last night my family had to take their cat, Lily, to the emergency pet hopsital. Lily was having trouble pooping more than usual (she’s has this problem for a while now) and the doctor determined she would need to have part of her colon removed to fix the problem and relieve her pain.

With my dad’s recent job loss, my family was not able to afford the surgery and medical care Lily needed so the doctor had to euthanize Lily.

This is not an easy decision for any pet owner and I am sad that she is gone. I am going to miss her begging for food at the table and her snoring when she’s sleeping on the chair.

We’ll miss you Lily!
