Barney was put down yesterday at the age of 15 years, 3 weeks, after a 8-month illness. He was lovingly cared for by his adoring owner, Judith, who raised him from the size of a thimble to the regal Brooklyn gent who appears here. Barney's favorite holiday was Friday the 13th, and though he may not be here to spend it in person, he is with us in spirit, causing mayhem in his most un-malicious way.

I feel particularly sad because, due to unforeseen circumstances, James had to wait a full year to see Barney's photo in this gallery. I am so sorry!
