A life well documented
Vader,
being Vader.
Fifteen years of seeking warmth, stealing chairs, taking road trips, watching windows, tolerating costumes, and keeping us exactly where he wanted us.

His people
The laps, chairs, trips, and ordinary moments that became a life together.

Vader & Lena
A roommate he did not order, then a friend whose company became part of home.

His kingdom
The catio, the yard, the windows, and every other territory under active management.

Peak Vader
Boxes, bags, sinks, appliances, judgment, and other perfectly sensible choices.

Advanced napping
A serious discipline, practiced on every available surface and several unavailable ones.

Holidays & game days
Costumes were tolerated. Lions football required its own kind of endurance.

Adventures & curiosities
Florida, road trips, toys, treats, paintings, and whatever caught his attention next.

The fighter
The difficult chapters belong here too. They are not the whole story, but they show how much he overcame.
