As you've probably gathered from reading this blog, Vinnie is quite the showman in our house. While our other cat Cooper provides warm affection, Vinnie provides entertainment, humor and love. He's know as Vin, Vincenzo, Little Man and one of the many Bubbas in our family. We're all a bit anxious to hear back about a biopsy from a lump he had removed last week. (We'll hopefully know more tomorrow.) And while it might seem strange to some to write about the potential heartbreak over a cat, those with four legged critters understand how deeply important they are to a family. And I can't imagine our kids without this guy. He provides our girls with endless lessons on compassion and empathy (and how to strut like you own the place). It's been wonderful watching Stella grow with Vinnie, and it's even more wonderful watching Phoebe learn from Stella and Vinnie about a special kind of gentle friendship. So we've been loving him a bit more fiercely this week, brushing him and taking naps with him and making sure he hasn't lost all his dignity from wearing that humiliating collar. And we welcome any good juju you have for our Little Man.
