Holmes was our feisty boy for nine years. We thought he would be with us far longer. I believe we needed him more than he needed us, and his personality could bring a smile to our faces at a moment's notice. He was a busy little guy - wherever we were, he was also. He would only settle down for the night when we were all together. He hated to be kissed, but tolerated the many that we gave him. He loved his walks, blanket and food, and he loved us. We miss him terribly, but the pictures and memories of him will keep him alive in our hearts. Sleep tight my precious boy, 'till we meet again.
