Our cat, Graywacke, died of kidney stones in Bucharest a couple weeks ago. To have a pet is to have a piece of nature in the home. It will be difficult to move back to Bucharest and not have him there.

Where did I come up with the name “Graywacke?” A graywacke is a dark, coarse-grained sandstone with a high clay content. He was gray, and he was a bit wacky.
