Patches died.
My cat died this morning. I had Patches for 12 years. She slept on my bed with me and sat next to me while wasting time on the computer. When the family got out of the car she waited until I got out then walked in with me. The last 4 days she was lethargic and we knew her end was near. My son buried her in the back yard and we hope the dogs don't dig her up.
