Loved your memorial to Rosie probably because I love all animals and I think your dad does too. You must read my story about the two hamsters we had as a pet. In summer we would put the cage
out on our shady patio to get some fresh air. This was fine until one day in late summer. I was out playing tennis as I did several times a week and was always back home by 4.00 p.m. That day I was delayed for some reason and did not get home until 4.30. Alas the sun had crept over the patio and reached our cage with our pets , They died of the heat and I almost died of chagrin and grief. My poor son evermore has accused me of killing those pets. He was almost fully grown before he forgave me!
