This story just inspired me to make a donation to Special Pals in Houston in memory of my sweet Oscar kitty who we had to have put to sleep a month ago. I adopted him from Special Pals nearly 16 years ago and it was one of the best investments I ever made. He traveled with me from Texas to Austria 12 years ago, then to Switzerland for 2 years ago, and back to Austria. He was a true member of our little family and I miss him every day.
