    Happy Birthday Texas!

    Today is my senior statesman's birthday. Texas is 14 years old. Sadly, Tex just isn't in the best of health anymore. He has a thyroid condition that is tough to manage, in the middle stage of kidney failure, and has dropped down to 6 pounds. While I want him with me forever, I know that isn't in the cards.

    Tex was my first tuxie, adopted from a shelter in Massachusetts. I used to call Tex my 'suitcase cat' as no matter where I went- moving, vacation, visits, Tex was just fine and dandy with it. He has welcomed every single kitty into the home, even a doggie or two, without a hitch. He is my alpha boy (though Montie is struggling with that) and will only let Georgia, his first love, eat his special wet food. I love him more than humanly possible. Here is one of my all time favorite pics of Tex, which I have posted before. This picture is probably 8 years old, and one of Tex's favorite positions- coiled in the hose, outside (I was out with him).

    Happy Birthday, Tex! Mommy loves you!

    Happy Purrrfffday Texas. I just know that you are going to be spoiled on your special day.

    As I said before, the RB is not ready for you yet so enjoy another year in your loving home.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!
