Sidney Jo, the cat was in our family before Brian and I were even married. Brian found Sidney while he was in college at SMSU.....he was the trashcan cat that all the college students fed. When Brian graduated he just couldn't leave the cat behind. Sidney then went to Med School with Brian in Columbia. He then made it through getting married, having kids (used to climb in their cribs with Brianna and Landon), moving to Florida, Illinois, back to Missouri and then 2 more little girls that joined our family. Our friends that have known us since before we were married were always surprised that when they would come visit after many yrs that we still had those SAME CATS. Well today is the day that we finally let Sidney have peace. He had been losing weight and spunk for quite some time , so we made the hard decision to let him go. Brian and I were both messes. It was way more sad than we imagined it would be. This post is in honor of our sweet friendly cat that could fetch, Sidney Jo Knopf!

We're so sorry about Sibby. He had such a good life and brought so much warmth to my cold lap on every visit. We'll miss him.
