BJ reporter Jim Carney and former BJ Features editor/pet columnist Connie Bloom, now one of Ohio’s fabric art (quilts) gurus, both suffered losses this month. Their pets went into Doggy Heaven and Cat Heaven.
Posted Connie on her
Facebook page:
“This
is Shakespeare. He died a few weeks ago, leaving a huge hole in our hearts. I
rescued him about 9-10 years ago, but he fell in love with my husband Bob, who
never peed alone again. Shakes had been declawed on his front paws, which
turned him into a biter. Bob started calling him Mr. Bitey while he mopped up
the blood from his ankles. Lily, our whippet, was Shakespeare’s lawyer and
always claimed they were love bites. He is buried in our back yard.”
Carney posted a photo of
himself and Stanley on his Facebook page with this poignant line:
“Stanley and me. His
last weekend.”
Maybe Shakespeare and
Stanley will make it rain cats and dogs in Northeast Ohio.
