My sweet baby Rosie has passed. I know some people view pets as just that, pets. But my family isn't like that. All our fur babies are family. Losing Rosie is hard. She was a sweetheart. Would never hurt a fly and a total scaredy cat. But also highly protective of us all. We're all broken about losing her. Rosie was always so excited to see everyone. Even during her last days.

She was extremely lethargic, even on the steroids. But when she she saw my niece or nephew, or when I called her name. She said the pain. Rosie got up, tail wagging. Happy. She was only 7 years old. Loved her food, loved playing. Loved chicken nuggets and cheese sticks. It's not fair.

Rosie helped raise Luna, the tux cat next to her in the picture. She had no biological pups, but Luna was her baby. Is her baby. For those here, bot creators, users, lurkers. If you have fur babies at home. Cats, dogs, birds, anything that you love. Cherish them dearly. Life is short. And painful.

SIP to my golden child, Rosie.

You will be missed forever, and I hope we get to see you in Heaven.
