I found the video and sobbed through it, and then I found this post & cried all over again. I loved that dog of yours by virtue of your wonderful stories about him and your quite obvious adoration of him, not to mention your insanely beautiful photos of him. I feel for you, and for the cats who miss him in their own way, too. Like others here, I recently lost my beloved cat just 2 weeks shy of his 17th birthday. It's still fresh and I still cry over him. So you definitely have my sympathy - and empathy. I'm also glad you have two new little sweethearts to keep you company (I have to smile over the idea that it took TWO little furbabies to help fill the space in your home that Merlin inhabited :P) It also makes me inordinately happy that you brought home rescues instead of puppies. You're such a wonderful person! {{{{HUGS}}}} Holly, I’ve been sporadically reading the wrong blog (Vox) – today I followed your link to Pink Paislee and eventually got here, then I spent ages reading about the new pups and wondering how Merlin was taking the new additions, only to read further down that he was gone.

I am truly sorry to read about Merlin, it's always been obvious how much you loved him. I hope you find comfort in the sweet memories. Hey Holly.

I was truely touched by your love for him. I normally don't post comments on blogs, but your love and sorrow made me. I sobbed after reading about Merlin. It reminded me of my dear Sylvester the Cat, my 20 year old friend, that just had outlived his body. For the 4 years since his passing, there is not a day that I don't think of him, not a day that I don't miss him, miss his cute little meow, or the weight of him on my chest as I fell asleep. He had such a great personality, as I am sure Merlin did. Funny how these little creatures leave such huge imprints on our hearts. Thank you for allowing me to remember Sylvester through Merlin. Merry Christmas and good luck with your new family...Jack and Daisy. They are too cute.

She was a grumpy old cat, but for short moments, she let you pet her, or she would chase a fly. I came home one day to find a bloddy mass on her leg, and we took her in. They said she was way to old to even make it through a biopsy. It was very hard to put her down and I cried for days. I understand all that you are goin through and I am so sorry. But he is still with you, always will be. Love I lost my cat Lucky after 16 years. She was a grumpy old cat, but for short moments, she let you pet her, or she would chase a fly.
