A Tragedy Waiting to Happen

Long ago, I told the tragic story of the Brief, Wondrous Life of Princess Lilac. Recently, I stumbled on this image from that brief golden period in between Petco and hamster disaster. A single day, filled with hope and the joy of a little girl with a fuzzy pet. A day before second attempts at species never meant for domestication, before compensatory rabbits, before cranky cats named for fictional dogs.

(And since this is posting close to Christmas, let it serve as a reminder that pets are not holiday gifts.)
