- We are so sorry to post that Lila passed away in January, 2022, after her reproductive health issues progressed beyond what we could treat. Lila lived in the house the last 8 months of her life, where she did as she pleased, ate treats all days, napped on all the comfy spots, always had companions, freedom, respect and love. We miss her every day.
