Oh, that face! ❤️ Dear Silver Gaia, I am so sorry for your loss. She sounds like such a wonderful member of your family. I wish I had the words to comfort you. I hope that you will be able to take some comfort in the memories of her and all the love and joy she brought to your lives.

Run free, Pretty Girl. You were the best.

With deepest sympathy,
MIButterfly
