Cooper Barnes Instagram – Somehow we got through a whole year without you, Fonze. It’s been a rough one. Words can’t describe how much we miss you. Figuring all this out without you here has been a real challenge. It’s been especially hard on Weasel, but she’s learned to lean on us, and trust us a lot more. We like to think you had a hand in sending Wally to us, and if you did, thank you. He’s wonderful and we love him. But nothing can or ever will replace that regal mane, those perfect snaggles, that manipulative purr, those furry chaps, those wise armpits, those boudoir eyes, that feather duster tail, or most of all, that immense love and kindness that poured out of you 24/7. Wherever you are now, just know that I look forward to meeting you there one day, and when I do, I’ll know that everything is right again. In the meantime, we’ll do our best to remember what you taught us, and put a little bit o’ Fonze in all our hearts. I love you, pal. And I miss my little panther. 🐾 ❤️ 🐈‍⬛
