When Lincoln burst into our lives nearly 12 years ago, we knew instantly he was no ordinary cat. He was larger than life - in size and personality. For the first half of his time with us, he was a top-notch Chief Executive Kitty at Black Dog Animal Rescue. He loved attention from everyone, two-legged and four-legged (unless you were a kitten), and was certain any visitor was there to see him specifically. He was also a professional menace and really didn't care if anyone liked it or not. You have to admire anyone who lives by their own rules. After he developed diabetes 6 years ago, he went to live full-time with BDAR's founder, Britney, where he became a cherished member of her family. Today, we said goodbye to our bold, loveable Linc. It was a beautiful send-off for a boy who deserved nothing less. He was surrounded by those who knew him best, we relived some of our favorite Lincoln stories, gave him lots of pets and treats, and when it was time for him to go, he peacefully drifted off in a sun spot, as any kitty should. We will all miss him very much. Goodbye, Linky.
