serious business

We took Climber to the vet this morning to drop him off and have Dr. Wallace look at him while we were at our respective jobs. He called Mom around 4 and told her that Climber had severe kidney failure; it had been going on a few months, he seemed to think, and that the best option would be putting him to sleep because the odds of a successful recovery were very, very low.

Tomorrow we'll pick him up and bury him; we got to sit in the room with him for like 30 minutes tonight just seeing him before they put him to sleep - of course, we left before they did it, because I couldn't sit in there.

RIP, Climber :( You were my best friend for 11 years
