Kiki, 1994-2007, RIP

Today the Fausto family joined the ranks of UU bloggers who have recently lost a family pet. We're sad, but holding up.





Put the rubber mouse away,
Pick the spools up from the floor,
What was velvet-shod, and gay,
Will not want them any more.

What was warm, is strangely cold.
Whence dissolved the little breath?
How could this small body hold
So immense a thing as Death?

-Sara Henderson Hay

I'm sorry to hear of your loss and hope that your Kiki, like our Bailey, left you many good memories to help get you through.

She is delicious. Head kisses on her and hugs to all of you.
