Condolences to the second family on the loss of their 16 year old cat

The Pence's 16-year old cat has passed on. Pickle was 16. Pickle was preceded by Oreo, their 13 year old cat last June and Maverick, their dog, last October 2016.
Though there is almost nothing about the Mike Pence I like, the Pence family devotion to their animals is admirable, even though doofus thinks they're low brow for having pets (another reason why I despise trumpf). They still have their rabbit Marlon Bundo, who has a book deal, gotta be better than Trump's crap and a pet snake.
I wish Mike had as much concern and compassion for people as he does for animals

Not to be too overly political, but maybe their association with il douche is having an adverse affect on the animals

Having had and lost cats and dogs (some to cancer, others to old age) over my 71 years
I can understand their pain.

(It surely didn't help that Trump mocked the Pence family as "yokels" for having and loving pets)

I offer nothing but condolences to the family. It's tough when they've been a part of your life so long.


Rest in peace dear Kitty.
