I'M Sorry, Tinky

I'm sorry, Tinky that it was me who let you go out one last time. We always let you go out at night. . you always came back. I didn't know that Mommy wasn't going to let you go out. .she didn't tell me until after I found you the next morning. If only we hadn't taught you to meow before you went out. .you would still be here; playing with your little gray furry toy mouse on the rug. But, it is too late to fix anything now. Not for a second, did Mommy or I regret keeping you. We both loved you so much; the house and yard are not the same, without our "little boy." I'm sorry that I paddled you sometimes. . I tried not to hurt you. You didn't need them very often, you were always a really good boy.
