by JoAnnIt took a little while to be able to blog about this, but today I’m finally ready.
We had a big loss at Vintage JoAnn this month. Our beautiful, huge black cat, Ozzie Ozborne died this month. Ozzie was a constant presence around here, watching us with his huge green, yellow eyes. He was a 22 lb. kitty with all black fur that gleamed like velvet.
During the last few years he grew from a reclusive cat that kept to himself to a friendly, gregarious guy who came running to greet customers as they came into the store. He charmed every one with his beauty, size, and sweet, friendly nature. We had ozzie for 5 years. He had been rescued from a dumpster as a kitten and had to be hand fed. We were shocked to see him grow so big, prowling around the house like some big spoiled panther.
Ozzie hid his illness well, demanding food loudly right up to the end. He developed a blockage and couldn’t urinate. We rushed him to the emergency animal hospital on Queen St. Sadly, during emergency surgery, he went into cardiac arrest, and even though the vet worked on him for 20 min. he never revived. We will miss when he greeted us at the door with his little chirps (Ozzie never meowed).
God bless you Ozzie, and all the little creatures God places in our care.
