General: Bye Bye Baxter

Baxter, the newest edition to our cat family, at only 10 months old, was unfortunately put down today after a rather severe spinal injury. He went missing for two days and finally turned up at our back door, dragging himself along by his front paws.

As you can see from the X-ray, it was a pretty severe break to his spine. The chances of his spinal cord remaining intact after that are pretty slim. We still have no idea what actually happened - as other than the spinal break, he has no other injuries.

Baxter was comfortable in the end, and he's now gone to a better place (Hannah's garden...). We'll always remember him, I only wish we had more pictures like this...

He was entirely made of win. And fuzziness. Win and fuzziness. RIP little beastie.
