Rest in peace my little buddy

After a very short, and hopefully pain-free, battle with mast-cell tumors, I had to say goodbye to my boy, my buddy, my constant companion for the last nine years, TIMMY!, on Sunday. Needless to say, the Creature household is very sad these days.

TIMMY! was one of kind. The kid lived every minute to the fullest during his short life. We think maybe he knew something we didn't. Without exaggeration, he was the happiest cat ever and he brought us more joy than I could ever express.

Rest in peace, buddy. Rest in peace.

Above is TIMMY! in his pet-my-fat-belly prime and below is a clip of his acting debut in a PSA made for the NYC Department of Health. Yes, he was a star. And, no, that's not me.



On a blogging note, this will probably wrap up posting on State of the Day for a while, if not for always. Maybe one day I'll resurrect the place, but for now I'd prefer to leave TIMMY! as its legacy.

Thanks, all.
