Speck 1998 - 2006
It is with deep sadness that I announce that Speck, my companion of these past 8 years, has left us. He was suffering from advanced symptoms of feline diabetes and had been experiencing increasing discomfort in the past several months.
He was born in Vancouver, BC, travelled with me to Calgary, then back to Vancouver, then to Toronto. He seemed to actually enjoy travel.
He was the most brilliant animal I have ever known and appeared to be studying English in his last months. He had learned to understand several commands and phrases. He also seemed to have learned to say the word "water" (two very distinct syllables) which he ended up saying a lot more as his condition worsened.
He enjoyed George Gershwin, soccer and roasted chicken. He was exceedingly social. He despised Stone Temple Pilots and would leave the room whenever any of their music was played. He had very singular taste.
He will be missed.
