When we first moved to Oklahoma we started feeding this stray cat. After a while he became very comfortable and made his way into our home and hearts. We named him Dolphin because of his coloring - he just looked like a dolphin. We had him 3 years and loved him. He started getting sick several months ago. He was losing a lot of weight, not eating well, vomiting, diarrhea, and was very weak. He was such a good cat not a very playful cat but always loving on someone and he was exceptionally great with the kids. Me and the kids took him to the vet today and they tested him for Feline Leukemia and it came back positive. He said there was a slim chance that with medicine, shots, and some fluids that he would get better but not cured. It is also a contagious disease and we have another cat, Hobbes. With broken hearts and many tears we decided that putting him down would be the best. It was not easy making that decision. We will miss him!
This picture was taken today. You can't tell a lot by this picture but he was skin and bones.

Well looks like everyone had a great time exploring our Great State of Oklahoma. I think maybe this was mostly Romeo's week of FUN :) Your vacations could always include a stop by the Austin's. God Bless
