Checkers (formerly Mr. Tate) was fortunate because he found a family that was a perfect match for him personality-wise. He was very sweet, liked the kids, and put up with the dogs. Unfortunately Checkers was also very sick. It was discovered that he had a tumor in his abdomen and fluid in his lungs. He spent the past weekend at the pet hospital, but there was nothing they could do for him. He was a sweet cat, and his family was thankful for his sake that he didn’t die alone or in a shelter, but they are also sad especially for the kids who had grown very attached to Checkers. He was dearly loved for the short time he was with them and will be missed.
Because life is better with a cat on your lap!
