SA DA KA Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 This is the first time Kayak has been off the deck in three months. His back legs are still weak, would take a few steps then lay down. Coaxed him to the door and did a front and back towel lift with the two of us to get him in. These pictures were taken about 20 minutes ago. We feel like very proud. You will see where they shaved his leg and on the left side of his neck for blood drawings. Fur-parents!

Removed #5 Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 Tried to find the Latin phrase "Dignitas, Sempre Dignitas" to make sure I had it right, loosely translated to "Dignity, always dignity!" which is what I see from the old man there. Just looks so very satisfied to be able to get out for a while ... continuing best wishes to all. Fr Carmen OFM - can you help. If memory serves, it was one of the Roman Senators who was being put to death ... but I'm drawing a big blank on who / when? (( or anyone for that matter! )) [[ not that it really matters, just bugs me ]] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Austinville Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 Awww Kayak! I have such a soft spot for our 'seniors' - I love them all, but the seniors are just so very special!

The very day Julius Ceasar was Assasinated by Brutus and the Senate. Ceasar's last words were actually in Greek! "Kai Sou Teknon (mou)?" which translates as "And you (my) Child?" said to Brutus as he plunged his dagger into Ceasar's heart. The unkindest dig of all, from his dearest, closest friend . . . Shakespeare immortalized the incident in his Play, "Julius Ceasar." Will used the phrase "et tu, Brute? then fall Ceasar!" although William used Latin in his play, according to historians, Ceasar used Greek! for you fund of partially useful but mainly useless knowledge.

Fr Carmen OFM Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 As per Kayak he reminds me of my Hero in dignity, age and grace! He's a real beauty the essence of husky-ness! His eyes speak volumes! great patience, experience and depth! I pray he will come through and recuperate fully!! What a blessing to have such a wonderful and wise soul! Thank you for the picture and Kayak's story. Do keep us apprised of his recoup! Blessings Carmen OFM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ravenwolf, there is a thread called "Kayak's Blood Results and Update" posted in Main Chat. We scanned his blood test results. Thank you for inquiring about the Old boy.
