I'm very sorry for your loss. Norman sounds like the one and only
Roscoe, who died at age 17. Roscoe was the world's surliest cat, with a
voice to match. I used to have his yowl as a warning sound on my office

was too painful to talk about.

grill, with sides of barley, broccoli, and garnish of tomato and red
pepper.
