also have a very sad update for sam’s friends that follow me on here unfortunately indy, sam’s cat had to be put down earlier this year she was 13 and developed a form of cancer that was in her jaw bone and by the time it was detectable it had already spread a lot and her vet said she wouldn’t be able to handle the treatment for it at her age an option would be to remove the lower jaw but the quality of life after wasn’t gonna be that good and we didn’t want to prolong any pain for our own feelings bc that’s selfish to have her be in pain for the sake of us wanting her with us so we just kept her comfy and gave her tons of love until the cancer spread to the point where she didn’t want to eat anymore she passed at home being held in her fave chair in sam’s room in the months leading up to that when she was starting to act different out dad would make sure to carry her around to all her fave spots in the house each day so she got to look out all her fave windows and sit in the warm sunny patches of light from the windows and he slept with her in bed with him every night and would read to her at night before bed since her having someone talk to her was really soothing it’s awful to lose indy and it’s been hitting me and my sad especially hard but i knew sam wouldn’t want her to be in pain even if it meant she wasn’t physically with us anymore we’ve gotten her cremated and plan to scatter ashes where sam is buried and some at sam’s apartment in oklahoma where he first brought indy home after being adopted we’ve also planned to use part of sam’s savings to donate to the shelter in oklahoma that indy was adopted from and put some towards the shelter in fort worth bc sam would always ask for dog food and cat food and dog and cat supplies for his b day instead of stuff for him and we would all go over to the shelter with a car full of supplies and deliver em to the staff so we wanted to keep that tradition and set up a yearly donation to the shelter on his birthday in his memory but yeah just wanted to update y’all on that since I’m sure sam talked about indy a lot it’s horrible losing her it felt like the last connection i had to sam was taken away but i know if sam saw us keeping indy in pain when she didn’t need to be he would have been so upset by that and now they’re together and i really hope they’re hanging out playing skyrim on the couch w the shark blanket and the reptile show PJ shirt and indy is curled up in his lap just snoozing and purring if any of his friends want some of indy’s ashes please let me know in still trying to figure out getting little vials to put some in with my parents I don’t know if we’ve gotten the ashes back yet since we were all really overwhelmed and didn’t talk to anyone or see anyone for a good while after that but if any of sam’s friends want some please let me know and I’ll try and find a way to get you some just not sure when that would be
