Rest in Peace, Theodore...

Theodore Butters
October 2005 - January 17, 2010.

Theodore is gone. It was quick and easy and he felt no pain. I sure am feeling it, but I know it was for the best. He was a wonderful little man that I will miss every single day. He brightened my life for four years and I know he had a happy life with me. He was always a huffy butthead, but he was my huffy butthead. I loved him.

He had a stroke about 2 months ago and was progressively getting worse.  He was no longer able to eat kibble and was barely eating wet food.  He had a drastic drop in weight and recently started to seem like he was in pain, so I knew it was time to put him down.  I has absolutely broken my heart, but I couldn't bear the thought of him hurting.

He's now running through long grass and eating mealies with my precious Quillson. Sleep sweetly my quilly love...
