I'm Just Glad I Didn't Wait Until the Spring.

Oh, man, I think I just found Vir's mom.

I was out in the back yard hacking down vegetation, because I've been seeing the cracks in the walls spreading and getting worse again (including a hairline crack in my new stucco, grr), and I strongly suspect part of the problem involves tree roots. In the course of my hacking, I pulled aside a bunch of dead weeds, and there, nestled in next to the fence, was a dead cat. It looked exactly like Vir, only bigger and, you know, dead.

It was a little bit distressing, to be honest.
