Merlin's gone.

[poltr1]

I came home today and checked on Merlin. His body was cold.

Thanks to all who've offered hugs and well-wishes. This isn't the first time I lost a pet -- Garion in 1993, Bubastis and Lady in 2002, Oreo in 2004. (To be accurate, Lady and Oreo were R's cats.) It's a sad, familiar place.

I'm asking myself if there was something I could have done differently -- taken better care of the litterbox, played with him more. And I wonder if he was in pain the past few days.

I can't possibly imagine you doing anything less than the best for him, so please don't beat yourself up over this. And accept another hug.
