Condolences to TBogg

It's often seemed as if cats rule the Web, what with Friday Cat Blogging and all. But one intrepid blogger has managed for years to buck the trend, and that is the one, the only, the often imitated but never duplicated TBogg. For years we've watched the Thursday Further Adventures of Satchmo and Beckham, and more recently, of the newest addition to Casa la TBogg, Fenway.

But today the TBogg clan has a hole in it where Satchmo used to be. We here at Casa la Brilliant know what that hole is like. We experienced it in 2000 and we will no doubt experience it again now that Maggie the Idiot Cat and Queen Jennifer Who Does Not Suffer Fools Gladly are getting up there in age. It's part of the bargain we make when we bring pets into our lives, but it's the part we never want to think about.

So our thoughts to out to the TBogg family today. We'll miss Satchmo too.
