Kera Harmon
Kera was born 03/14/2017, and was adopted by me on 03/17/2019. I will say that I certainly wasn't looking for a pet the day I saw Kera at the shelter, but within mere minutes all that changed. I couldn't say no to that face and before I knew it I was signing adoption papers and bringing her to her furever home with me. We certainly had our up and downs, who doesn't, but we took it all on and faced it together. I thought I was gonna lose her in January of '24 to GDV but we got through with the help of an amazing team of Dr's & Surgeons and family who chipped in to help with cost. We thought the we had weathered the worst of it but I knew the day would come when I would have to let her go from me side. I had hoped it would be one of those move type ending, passing peacefully of old age in her sleep but the universe wasn't so kind. She suffered a leg injury mid-July that I had hoped would heal before winter but I had come to terms with knowing if it didn't I wasn't going to make her suffer struggling to get around on snow & ice. I had her out for a potty break on 08/12/25 and she ended up tweaking one of her back legs to the point where she could barely walk/stand and I knew in that moment my world was crashing down as I couldn't bear to watch my better half of almost 6.5yrs continue to struggle so I made the hardest decision any pet owner knows we'll have to make sooner or later. My dear sweet princess Kera, words will never be able to explain my love to you and although you were taken from my side far too soon, your love and companionship have left a paw impression on my heart that will last an eternity. I've lost a best friend, a #1 fan greeting me at the door, a smiling face and waging tail that made even my worse days feel like the best day ever, BUT, I gained an angel watching over me and when my own time comes I know you'll be there to meet me at the gates so we can pick up right where we left off playing in our big yard in the sky forever. YOU GO. I GO. WE GO. paw in hand, together forever, I love you my sweet girl Kera.
