We said goodbye to our sweet kitty Morella on Sunday. She brought us 10 years of love and affection we will always cherish. She was the Queen of our house who brought balance to the chaos of our lives and the chaos the bulldogs bring to the house. We will miss her deeply and she’ll always be in our hearts 💞 🐱 Love you Momo!

Kitty’s trip to City Park

We are still reeling from the devastating loss of our sweet girl Rexy. She collapsed last Friday night (November 7th) suddenly as we arrived home from work. She excitedly ate her dinner, then I put on her new tie-dye harness to get ready for a late night walk, then as we walked to the front door, she collapsed. We rushed her to the ER but it was too late. The vet found a mass in her stomach . That mass— likely originating from an organ such as the spleen, liver, or gastrointestinal tract — can develop abnormal blood vessels. These vessels can rupture or release small clots (thrombi) into the bloodstream. If one of those clots travels through the circulatory system, it can block a blood vessel in the brain, similar to an ischemic stroke in humans. When that happens, part of the brain suddenly loses oxygen and blood flow, leading to collapse, seizures, paralysis, or loss of consciousness — often irreversible. The event is usually rapid and catastrophic, which fits what you described — there’s often no time to intervene. Rexy wasn’t just a dog — she was family.
For ten beautiful years, she filled our home with warmth, patience, and her quiet bulldog strength.
She gave the world two litters of puppies, each carrying a piece of her big heart, her stubborn spirit, and her gentle eyes.
Rexy loved deeply and loyally, and she never asked for more than our love in return.
Even in her last moments, she reminded us how precious every breath, every cuddle, every silly bulldog snore truly is.

Her paws may no longer walk beside us,
but her love will always live within us —
in the joy her puppies bring to families across Colorado,
in the quiet corners where she used to nap,
and in the unspoken bond she leaves behind.

Thank you, Rexy, for loving us so perfectly.
You were — and always will be — our good girl. 🐾
