Aww. We love them so much; our furry little children.
Sterke Essexjan!

Thank you. She has taken her final journey over the Rainbow Bridge, with no pain, in peace and surrounded with love.

Very sorry for your loss. I've always enjoyed seeing photos of Lucy over the years. She'll be missed. Take care.

Oh, Lucy. Green of eye, firm of figure, forever in our cuteness banks.

I took this picture of her a month ago. Although she was 16, she looked like a young cat.

And this is the last one of her, taken yesterday when she was purring and content, after lots of head scritches. Shortly after this she went on her last journey.

She's left a cat-shaped hole in my heart. One day I know another cat will come along to fill it.

Thanks everyone for the lovely messages, here, on FB, by email. I really appreciate it.

I'm so sorry to hear your sad news. She's so pretty and so lucky to have had you and you to have had her.
