It's been a bad week to be one of my pets. Last Monday my dog in Ireland was put to sleep after an inopeable tumour on his snout had gotten so large that it was beginning to have a detrimental effect on the quality of his life. Then the following night my cat had an embollism. He spent the next few days at the vets, during which he went blind. The vet tells me that there is no need to give up hope yet; so here he sits at the side of me, silent and unseeing like the Sphinx.
I am mounting a constant vigil on the goldfish.....
