Too Cute!

This is my cat Bailey. I couldn't resist sharing this photo of him. Pure indulgence i know. This cat is so laid back he's horizontal!

Chilled out cat!

 This is my eldest cat Bailey. He wanted to help me with my work on the computer the other day. He is one chilled out cat!

Molly takes over!

I would like to introduce you to Molly the latest addition to our family. She is just over six weeks old and is no bigger than my hand. For one so small she creates a large amount of mayhem as her aim in life is to play play and play! We love her to bits! Ever since we lost Kenzo we have wanted to get another cat to be company for Kenzo's brother Bailey. The time never felt right until now. I'll let you know how Molly and Bailey get on in another post. It might be love at first sight or fireworks!

We were thinking of calling her Dell ....



.... or shrub!





What a poser!



Always ready for a game.



Goodbye Kenzo.

It is with regret that I report the death of one of one of our beloved cats. It happened three weeks ago but it's only now that I can share this post. The death of a pet is always difficult to deal with, but in Kenzo's case it felt worse for me as I found his body in the road on my way to work. He had gone out late the previous evening but didn't come to our calls as he usually did. We weren't unduly worried as he occasionally did stay out at night and sometimes jumped in through the bedroom window in the early hours.

When he didn't appear the next morning I was uneasy, but thought maybe he had got locked in a neighbour's garage or shed and would turn up eventually as if nothing had happened. I left for work and saw him laying at the side of the road. I was in instant denial, trying to convince myself that it was someone else's cat, but it was him. I lifted him up, gently put him in the car boot and drove home to tell the dreadful news to the family. That evening we put him to rest in our garden close to one of his favourite dozing places.

We miss him terribly. He was only two years old. Such a short life, but he had such an effect on us. He was handsome to the eye and had such an infectious miaow. He just talked and talked to you! It was so disarming. We had him as a kitten at just a few weeks old together with his brother Bailey. They adored each other and played and slept together. Bailey, we can tell misses Kenzo. He went very quiet the day after. He is a bit better now, but not back to his normal self. He must feel very lonely. Why do pets do this to us? It really hurts when something like this happens. We will never forget you Kenzo.
