This is a layout that I created today of my lovely cat Duke. We had to make that painful decision to end his short life on 3rd January after a chest infection set in. Further tests and x-rays taken showed that he had cancer of the liver and tumours in his lungs. Since he had been diagnosed with FIV earlier in the year, his immune system was already low and he really didn't have the strength in him to fight this time. We were with him when he went and its of some comfort that we were stroking him and telling him how much pleasure and joy he gave us over the last year. He was one beautiful little fella and we miss him such a lot.
I created this layout for The Color Room challenge which is to use cream, brown, duck egg blue and a little red.
Thank you for looking

ReplyDeleteSorry to read about your beautiful Duke. It's so hard to make the decision 'when' but it's the right thing to do so they don't suffer. It's a beautiful page for a beautiful member of the family.
