I mentioned last summer in a
post how little Dexter has been out of sorts since losing his
best pal, our blind Goldie, last year. He's been snuggling up with a couple of other older ladies these days, including Widget, as you can see in the photo above. Widget had never been one to share her personal space, but in the past couple of years had begun making an
exception for Dexter. Without Goldie, Dexter's been needing this kind of togetherness more than ever. Alayne got that shot a few days ago.
And Dexter is still cuddling with elderly Madison, too. Here's a photo I took yesterday of the two of them together:

Dexter's really been showing his age in the past couple of months, and we fear he may be nearing the end. But we thought that about blind Madison last year, too, and didn't expect her to make it to Christmas. Yet here she is, creaky and gimpy but still very much with us and serving as a real comfort to Dexter.
