Our Mingus

I'm not one for getting too personal on here, but I'm feeling so shabby that I thought I'd share my misery. We found out last night that our awesome big bear cat Mingus has cancer. We're shocked, angry, upset, sad, worried, unsure, etc. It is inoperable. 

We've had him since he was a baby, and he's 12 now. Jase and I always hoped he'd defy cat statistics and life to be a grand old age of 30 or 130 or something totally silly... truth is, we love him so much, it breaks our hearts to imagine life without him.

So, I feel a little numb, and a lot sad today.

We might have a few weeks with him, and we might have a few months... it's unknown, but regardless - each day we do have will be awesome.  Here's some photos of our little black bear.  He's a bright shiny spark.
