Rest in Peace, Febo
We got Febo in the summer of 1994 when he was a scrawny, flea-infested but extremely happy kitten found behind a K-Mart. Sadly, he left us on February 23, 2007.Febo grew into a cat with a well-founded fear of pretty much everything, but he was very loving once he decided you weren't a Monster. This discerning judgment served him well.
In the end, the monsters didn't get him, but failing kidneys did. He brought us a lot of happiness, and I don't know if we'll ever be able to fill the empty place he leaves in our house, and in our hearts.
