My boy Tigger peacefully crossed the Rainbow Bridge yesterday; his little body just gave out from fighting Chronic Renal Failure for two and a half years.  His dad and I, and his vet were with him until the end.  Tigger's dad and I rescued him at 10 days of age, and we had nearly 20 years with him.   I will miss by baby boy more than I can possibly express.
