RIP Hector the Cat

Yesterday, everyone in our family received a very, very sad text from my oldest daughter Meghan. She now lives in central California with her amazing husband Brent.

Their youngest cat, Hector, went missing over a week ago.

Meghan found him yesterday and sent all of us the following text message. She was unable to call us on the phone she felt so bad.

It was not the outcome Kathy and I were hoping for.

With Meghan 3,000 miles away, Kathy and I were distressed that we couldn't hold her trying to comfort her and soak up some of her sorrow.

If you've lost a pet, you know they can and do become a member of your family, please comment below and I'll share this page with Meghan and Brent when they feel better.

Thank you so much for any comforting words you can share in their time of deep grief.

Hector is the first pet Meghan has lost.
