SpongeBob, 3, passed away on December 16, 2022 after a long and happy life. Even though SpongeBob was just a cat, he was a loyal and comforting companion in our times of need. He was present for: eating, fighting his siblings, and always kept watch over our home. Even if SpongeBob was a little feisty and unpredictable, the small moments of playfulness and violence made it all worth it. We were lucky to have had the amount of time we had with SpongeBob and know we will never be able to replace him.
