goodbye nala

It is amazing how much love and laughter they bring into our lives and even how much closer we become with each other because of them. 
- John Grogan

our last picture together, we took her to be put to sleep about an hour later.  her life was no longer enjoyed, her frail body was sad to see.  She still knew how to smile though.


Not the least hard thing to bear when they go from us, these quiet friends, is that they carry away with them so many years of our own lives.  
-John Galsworthy




Our perfect companions never have fewer than four feet.

this is the only picture I can find of Haig and Nala.  They were never as close after she peed on his mattress that one time.  Sorry Haig.  I think she was just trying to tell you how much she loved you.




Until one has love an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened.  
-Anatole France



Her ears were often the first thing to catch my tears. 
-Elizabeth Browning


Perhaps the greatest gift an animal has to offer is a 
permanent reminder of who we really are.
