What did your pet(s) do today?

I was getting out of the car....when I saw Bud the cat....stalking something in the grass near the pool...he was being as stealthy as a 20lb cat can be....but at the same time....he looked...perplexed...and scared. I wasn't sure just what he had his eye on...so I got out of the car and walked over...

He continued his stalking posture...but continued to look unsure....I looked in the grass where he was headed...and found a 4 in piece of black hose (presumably for the pool). I guess he thought it was a snake of some sort...lol poor Bud....

This place is probably meant to be light and fluffy but my bichon frise baby girl, Paisley, died unexpectedly yesterday at 16.5 years old. I loved her so much. She and my other dog were my babies until I had my daughter 3 years ago. I found her dead. I am so sad she died alone. I never wanted for either of them to be alone when they died. That bothers me the most. I held her for a long time and brought her to the vet on my lap. And then held her even longer at the vet office. She will be cremated and I will get her ashes. They made me a card with her paw print.

My other dog, Gloworm, is also 16. He has not been very well, either.

This hurts so much. They have been with me for over 16 years...longer than any romantic partner. They are family. I don't think I ever want to have a dog again.

I just hope when I die that they are there to greet me. I don't know what happens after you die, but that is what I would like and I have told them so.
