Abigail Arnold

<p>Kim saved Abby from a certain death in Shacktown. Abby was loved for eight years. We had to put Abby down due to kidney failure.</p>
<p>When we chose where to bury Abby, we did not know that a five foot pole of steel was buried upright in that spot decades ago. I kept digging and yanking at the pole until the earth finally relented. I nearly fell over onto my backside once the pole was free, which would not have been very dignified. At that moment, emotion overcame me and I wept for the loss of my little tuxedo fuzz ball.</p>
<p>Abby now rests beneath perennial daisies in front of our living room window. A Finch feeder attracts birds to flit near her. I hope that is enough for her.

Abby deserved a blog post. She was a companion and friend to a good woman and her children. I wish I had more time with her.
