Zeus was my shadow, such a gentle boy, I loved him so dearly.  Those eyes...........I only had to look into them and they showed how much he returned that love.  I never had to look for him, he was always here, by my side.  I thought I would have him until he was an "old man", but he was killed tragically in a veterinary accident.  He was only 2 and a half years old, and was sent by my vet for a scan to a Referral Practice, where he died that day.  1 week before Christmas.......I am, heartbroken.  My shadow has gone.  I awake every morning - my house is like a Memorial to him - posters, photos, and even a "mini me" on my dining table.  I will never get over this.  I never got the chance to say goodbye - he was too young to leave - he left with a happy smile on his face with my vet and that was the last I saw of him.
