Meet Mikey — our sweet 16-year-old boy who has been part of our family through so many chapters of life.

Recently, Mikey was diagnosed with advanced kidney disease. Over the past few days, we’ve seen him slowing down more, and we know in our hearts that he’s getting tired. Even now, he still shows that same gentle spirit and love that has defined his entire life.

After a lot of love, tears, and difficult conversations, we’ve made the decision to help Mikey cross over peacefully. This is the hardest choice we’ve ever had to make, but we want to give him the dignity, comfort, and peace he deserves — surrounded by love.

We are still covering the costs of his care, including his final veterinary support to ensure he is comfortable and at peace. If you feel called to help, any donation would mean so much to us. And if not, sharing this or keeping Mikey in your thoughts means just as much.

Mikey has given us a lifetime of unconditional love. Now it’s our turn to give him the same — a gentle, peaceful goodbye filled with love.

Thank you for holding space for him and for our family during this incredibly difficult time ❤️
