Does Time Go On?

A lot has been happening since my last entry. My cat Minou on January 26th had dental surgery and shortly after that, her kidneys started to give out on her. On April 1st she was her normal self and suddenly on the second, it went down hill from there. I spent as much time as I could with her, drawing her, filming her and taking pictures. The above picture was drawn with a glass pen using calligraphy ink. I gave her watered down skim milk as she loved it all through her life. I was getting frustrated with my drawing as I have failed to capture her essence and spirit. I started to cry out of frustration. I knew time was running out and to this day I could not draw her. Immediately after, she came and sat on me. This drawing will be something that I will cherish for the rest of my life. She fought hard to hang on. On Easter Monday, April 25th, it proved to be difficult battle for her and I had to make the hardest decision of my life and something that I feel extremely guilty over. Yesterday, it was her birthday. She would have been 18 years old. She was loved and is greatly missed
