Post your cats ( or other worthy critters )

Sorry to hear that, Rich. Always a tough one losing a much loved pet. RIP Alfie...

Marco.

Lovely pic, I think Alfie nails it though.

Sorry to hear he has gone.

He'd been my little pal for 14 years. You get very attached to them. The house is emptier without him. At this rate I expect it won't be long before another hard luck case finds its way to our door though. R

Sad to hear rich. Lost mine a few years ago after 22 years service. Ive not replaced her.

Best way to deal with it, mate. When we lose one of ours, the first thing we do is go along to the local Cat Protection League and get another wee moggie. Helps us deal with the loss, and most importantly, gives a much needed home to another stray kitten :)

Marco.

Thanks fellas. I was just clearing some pics and stuff from my phone and found a bunch of him. Mrs B saw them and we're off again with the grief. I've had cats n dogs since I was a kid and this never gets any easier does it.

There's still Chester the ancient ginger tabby to love so after sharing his home for so long I'm going to let him enjoy being king of the hill for the rest of his days before we bring in another. However if one should happen to turn up...

Sorry about Alfie mate, 14 years is a long time.
Assuming he turned up on your doorstep one day?

If so, he had a good innings. :)

Thanks Gaz. Yeah we adopted the other one when we bought our first flat. I was living at my mums for a while and a ginger stray tabby turned up. We moved in and installed a catflap and Alfie came in. We asked all the neighbours who he belonged to and whilst they had all been feeding him nobody knew. He'd been living in someone's shed and compost heap. Winter came and we neutered him so he stayed. He was charming and a real boss of the street. Fiercely territorial but a softy too.

Cats pick their owners, its not the other way around. :)

I could not have another cat after loosing Lucky a few years ago. Just cannot go thru loosing another Pussy
