RIP Benji

gahh!

i originally wrote about Benji here.

i had him from i think the end of June or the beginning of July.

just when i thought he was going to be ours forever (because no one was interested at the moment in adopting him) we finally got a bite in September.

this picture was actually taken the week before he was to leave us.

anyway, i never really wrote about him being adopted. maybe because i 100% forgot to do it but i do remember walking him to the park to introduce him to his new family.

they fell in love, they signed paperwork and he went home with them that same minute.

i freaking cried so hard.

i called my boyfriend and i freaking cried and cried and then went home and cried some more.

i had only left his side like 5 minutes and i was already falling apart.

luckily the family that adopted him was super cool and we exchanged numbers and we'd message each other every now and then. but little by little i stopped hitting them up because while they were 100% cool with it, he wasn't mine anymore and i didn't want to interrupt them anymore.

so i left them alone.

and then Friday i decided to text her because their 1 year anniversary just passed.

i just told her that i hoped they were all good and that B was behaving like the good boy he is.

then i get a call from her.

apparently Benji passed away back in April.

FUCK MY HEART BROKE!!!!!

i wont get into the specifics of it but I'm just glad that i was able to save him from the pound and that they were able to give him a better life.
