8 years ago Zoe, my daughter Katie, and I went to the WAIF animal shelter just south of Coupeville to look for a kitten. A little orange female purred her way into our hearts.

Zoe named her Olivia. A month ago she was diagnosed with kidney failure. We were told she might have 6 months to a year to live. She went much faster. Thursday morning we took her to the vet to have her put down. Zoe's post and a picture of Olivia here. No one loved her more than Zoe.

The stress of the past couple of weeks caught up with me Thursday night and I pretty much slept for the next 24 hours. I'm now catching up with Wednesday.

We miss her very much.
