Yes, 19 Oct we cremated snr cat and 30 Oct my mother.
Just hope the saying about things going in threes is wrong.

By some fluke I came across a ceramic of a British Blue cat v nicely done abut 8in long with tail curled up. It is hollow so I put his ashes inside. After some discussion he hangs out (within) on a kitchen shelf which was his favorite room. It's the best we can do for now.

I am not one of those people who seem to be able to carry on regardless but have always taken the loss of cats, dogs, horses, close friends and business partners, children and brothers-in-arms very hard. Mercifully there is usually a gap of years between such loss but two in a month has been a wee bit too much.

Snr Cat was an experienced traveler, he used to get quite excited with a trip in the offing. A new cat or kitten needs a predictable life, lots of company and so on. My OH works odd hours while my work has me all over the place. One day I guess we will have one or more cats, maybe as has happened in the past, one will choose us.

Thank you all for your support.
