Skye Harrison-Lloyd, 1999 to March 15, 2010

We had Skye put to sleep today. We felt that his diabetes and mysterious skin condition had troubled him (and us) for long enough. Since last August when he was diagnosed with diabetes he had dropped in weight from about 16 pounds to 10 pounds and he just wasn't looking good, or feeling good.

We didn't get to witness the actual put-to-sleep procedure because we took him to the animal shelter to have it done (they do it for free there...bonus), but Danza still shed some tears and I came very close to tears. He was a small but significant part of our happy family for many years.

He is in a happy less itchy place now and we won't have kitty litter all over the house any more.

Rest in peace Skye, we love you.
