 Dedicated to Cleveland Amory Sherwood 1998 – September 20, 2011.
The best cat ever!
I started to write this post a couple of weeks ago. Since that time I have had to carry out the excruciating decision to euthanize my sweet tabby cat Cleveland due to the ravages of cancer. Cleveland died only 2 ½ months after his diagnosis. It spread through him like a bush fire. I was his nurse throughout this ordeal.

Today I took my beloved tabby cat Cleveland for yet another surgical intervention to deal with his severe chronic respiratory disease. He's a brave, loving and determined little fellow who has just barely bypassed the grim reaper on several occasions. This time his vet is looking for everything from a fungus infection to cancer. Cleveland's life started out rough in a wealthy but unloving home where he was unwanted, to abandonment at a 'No Kill' shelter where we found each other. He is no... Continue reading ...
