Just for fun, I built a snowman and a snowcat for Toby Jug.
Toby Jug went for a prowl in the snow, making paw tracks in the moonlight.
It was the anniversary of his rescue, and we both took a celebratory stroll in the snow.
I buried him under the apple tree he loved to climb, and made a solemn promise.
