I'm c/p'ing from my blog, so I don't have to type this out again.

Trying to find the words to memorialize Zane is really hard.
I guess the first thing most people noticed about him was how absolutely beautiful he was. And he knew it, of course.
The second thing would be how pissed he was at most humans for existing in HIS world. It took effort to get on Zane's good side, but once you got there, you were part of his family. And he was very protective of his family. Any new babies that came into the house were HIS babies, and ya better not mess with them. Jeff messed with Luna one day, and found out what it was like to have cat teeth inside his big toe! He would also come and meow at us if Marc was crying when he was a baby. He could not stand to hear Marc cry, and he let us know it.
The most special thing about Zane to me was the fact that he would play tag with me. And he was good at it, too, quite sneaky in his attacks. He would crack me up and give me a good workout at the same time.
The most annoying thing about Zane was his tendancy to completely ignore the "no getting on the countertops" rule the minute everyone went to bed. And if the dishwasher was on the drying cycle, you can bet Zane was on the counter enjoying the heat. He loved that so much that I always let him get away with it.
He was sick for over a year, but we were able to control it with medication. The last ten days, he just went downhill so fast, I still can't believe it happened. Today Dr. Ali and I decided that nothing we had tried was working, and to let Zane slowly starve to death would be cruel. Zane passed peacefully in the vet's office at 12:30 PM today. He will always be loved and missed, and never forgotten.
