Well one week after my dad gets Chuck the kitten (
http://www.rohrbaughforum.com/YaBB.cgi?board=Water;action=display;num=1146970600;start=135) to keep him company, after the passing of my mother three months ago, my dad almost dies at his home - his implanted defibrillator shocks him fourteen times - twice bringing him back to life.
Two weeks in the hospital for a serious heart condition dad talked daily about coming home to Chuck. Late last week my dad came home to stay for now with my brother who works from home. He goes back to the hospital for a few days this week for an upgraded defibrillator/pacemaker - hope it helps since now he is in bad shape physically.
Chuck goes to my brother's house where my dad is - brother has two large dogs - golden retrievers. After Chuck showed them (the dogs) he is not to be messed with, he bonded with the female golded, Maggie - pictured below.
First picture is dad with Chuck yesterday - dad hardly ate in the hospital and lost a lot of weight. He currently is very weak.
Chuck and his new pal Maggie.
