    And I was having such a good day. This one tore me up.

    The one that got to me was the last photo in the photo gallery, where the nursing home cat would go up to patients and crawl in their bed during their final hours.

    I'd hate to see that cat coming.

    Ms. Slappy saw it and said, crying, "How come AOL always has to show things like this?"

    I think this story appeared on the WCCO website Sunday night. I still get teary-eyed reading the AOL version today. :(

    I think I'm going to go give my dog some extra tummy scratches.

    Back at you, Moddy.

    If you get through all nine strips with a dry eye...

    I'm guessing you won't.

    And when you get over those two, Comedy Central is showing the dog episode of Futurama on Monday at 9.

    Ah, Jurassic Bark.

    I hope I'll forget. To watch, not the episode...I'll never forget the episode.
