Today at school I got a message from one of the school secretaries saying the Humane Society had called and that they were ready for pick up. This meant that they had cremated D’Argo and we could bring him home.

We went to the Humane Society to pick him up after school. He is in a little stone urn and if you take the lid off there is small bag and covering that is a tissue paper bag. That is, of course, D’Argo. When we got him home we put another bag in the urn, which contains some of his fur, two whiskers, and part of one of his claws that he shed. We have also placed his three collars in the urn and closed it up. We now have the urn sitting on the computer desk next to his picture.

We still miss him and wish that he was still with us. We only had D’Argo for 14 months, but we treasured the time that we had with him.
