RIP Rosie (2009-2021)

 

We collected Rosie's ashes yesterday afternoon from Coastways, and brought them home.

 

We buried the ashes themselves in the earth near the palm tree that she used to enjoy climbing in her youth. To mark the spot we have placed a copper coal scuttle containing various rose plants. Later on we intend to plant a rose bush there.

 

The bamboo casket that her ashes came in is now home to her toy mouse that she has had since she was a kitten, when we took her home from the RSPCA in Patcham in 2009.

 

We had a drink in her memory in the Napier and the Dover last night.

 

RIP Rosie (2009-2021)

Farewell Rosie (2009-2021)

 

It is with great sadness that I have to let you know that Rosie died, after a short illness, yesterday afternoon.

 

She was not alone when she died, and was at least happy and relaxed at the the end.

 

She was a lovely little cat, and will be much missed.

Thank you Rosie for giving me an extra special start to my day by puking on the Chinese rug during the night, and allowing me to step in it first thing in the morning!

Cats Don't Like Humans Working From Home - How Very Cat!

 

Today the vet told me that since Covid, they’ve had to treat a number of cats with depression caused by irritation that their people are at home all day. Obviously it’s not really funny but… that’s the most Cat thing I’ve ever heard. Apparently dogs do not have the same problem.

Dilyn Nicking Larry's Food

 

The Prime Minister's dog (Dilyn) has allegedly has been caught sneaking into the room where fellow pet Larry the cat’s food bowl is kept – and gobbling up the contents.  

A Downing Street insider has now said Dilyn has been seen eating Larry’s food several times – although his behaviour is thought to have improved recently. However, a Government source insisted the allegations were ‘totally untrue’.
