Today I am thinking about my little boy Bob. He died almost a year ago and we all still miss him.
He was a very timid old gentleman but very cuddly with me and hubby. In the weeks after he died I wrote down lots of things we remembered about him. About the things he did, what he liked and disliked. He hated loud noises and the sound of tin foil being unwrapped from the tube!
He was 16 years old when he died, he fell asleep in the sunshine after a short illness. It was peaceful and as he did not like going to the vet was the best way for him to go.
Bob
13th September 1992-23rd July 2008
Oh, he's lovely. I can understand how much you must miss him.

Memories keep part of them alive.
ReplyDeleteDear Bob looked a lovely old fellow.
I used to have two lovely tabby cats not unlike Bob. They lived to ripe old ages too. I love the picture of him basking in the sunshine. x
ReplyDeleteBless Bob. You are slightly obsessed with the mosaics aren't you!! xxx
ReplyDeleteBob looked adorable… happy memories are a lovely thing to have!
ReplyDeleteSending you lots of love… XXX
He was a very lovely old cat! It's very understandable how much you miss him as pets are part of the family too. I love all your mosaics ~ once I learn how to do it I'm sure I will use them a lot too :O)

Hi Lyn!
ReplyDeleteI sincerely understand your feelings, as I have 3 dogs and consider them part of my family.One in particular, my fave, is very old and ill.
Bob would be very proud of his mum!
Oh Lyn, your Bob was gorgeous! We become so attached to our pets, don't we...and we miss them so when they're not around...but the happy memories remain. Rebecca x
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweetie Bob was. Missing him is a testament to how much he brought to your life! And all those memories are his legacy. Thinking of you today..........
