Basil plays a game

Basil and I would play simple games together. We'd sort of figure these things out together based on other things he liked. He loved to chase after the hair bands I'd shoot across the room. I discovered he also liked to grab them out once I put them in. I loved how we came up with new games together. The next day after this video was taken I took him to the vet to see why he had been coughing. That began a tortuous three and a half months of doing anything we could to keep him alive. Sadly, he lost his battle with idiopathic chylothorax, a pretty uncommon condition in which a fluid was essentially filling his chest cavity. I miss him so, so much.
