a cat-shaped hole in my heart
So those of you who follow Darrell or Axel on Facebook already know, but Jack didn't make it.
I miss that fuzzy asshole like you would not believe.
Brock is such an airhead at the best of times that it's hard to tell if he even notices that Jack is gone. But he has been extra needy for the last few weeks, so I guess that means he does.
I suspect we won't have Carlin for very much longer either - beardies live about 10 years in captivity and I think he has to be about 11 or 12 now. He's gotten really near-sighted and he hasn't been moving as easily as he used to. He sleeps more, eats less - in general just seems to be just gradually winding down.
On the other hand he is loving this 40+ weather we're having, so maybe he'll outlast the rest of us.
