I'm so sorry to hear this news but it is the kindest, gentlest act.

A certain loppy-eared bunster has been notified to be on her best behavior (she's been known to *thumpz* others) and welcome sweet Speckles when the time comes. As official digger-upper of the garden grounds (and house plants), she's sure to know the best catnip patches.

{{Many hugs to you, Slick. Many hugs.}}
