The reason I had him in the first place is because my old cat had died, I took her stuff to the cats protection league, they showed me photos of all the cats which needed rehoming, I agreed to take one and came away with 2, much to my husbands disgust! I went to see one but he was housed with a little girl. I went into the run to meet him and she had pressed herself against the back wall in the corner and looked terrified. Apparently her owners had had their house repossessed so had given her to their neighbours. One week later the neighbours had their house repossessed so both cats were given to the cats protection league. She had had 3 homes in 3 weeks so I took them both. My hubbie has held this against me for the last 13 years. She's very hotly toity and I think she owns us not the other way round! Occasionally she deigns to give us a cuddle but once she's had enough, she gives you a whack.A week after we had our old boy put down I signed up for fostering dogs from Wood Green. The first dog they sent was a 4 month old hound who'd been abandoned. Needless to say i was a rubbish dog fosterer. I fell in love with her and kept her. She grew into the massive beast in my profile pic.
Thank you. Feel a bit lost without morning cuddle. Our fiercely independent female cat has been fed by our eldest and has already gone back out again!I had a cat (well he found us) we called him Homer after the philosopher, he was more like a big black panther, totally scared the local dogs, killed everything in his path, (even squirrels). He was awesome (not a word I like but it describes him). His kidneys packed in, it took 3 injections to take him away from us - his heart was strong. Then last year one of my dogs died from a heart condition. Talk about sob!
My son said, you know you only have them for a short while, and you enjoyed each others company. It took me out of the moment, and helped me remember their memory.
Feel for you Scandi.

Cat diagnosed with aggressive bone cancer today and had to be put down. He was 15 and his kidneys weren't great. Vet said it was kindest thing to do. Could have taken him home for the weekend but would have been mean. Cat would have suffered and not fair on kids either. Feeling sad.
