Title: Goodbye Old Lad
Post by: bonnielass on March 31, 2011, 21:45:14 PM

You came to me 4 years ago as a temporary foster for Sam (fussyfurball ) but quickly fitted in and so you stayed,a distinguished old boy of 18yrs ,you were grumpy  and told me in no uncertain terms if your water wasnt straight from the tap, or your milk wasnt cold enough,you told me when it was time for you to go out especially if the sun was shining,oh how you loved the sun, wherever there was a patch you could find it and bask in its warmth,the little strolls in the wood.
You never mingled with the other cats but kept yourdelf to yourself except for little Polly Pipsqueak,somehow she wormed her way into your heart and you let her share your bed and your food and never complained when she sat on you or played with your tail,
You were never a lap cat but in your own funny way you got into my heart and now youve gone its left a hole,.

What a great personality. They always leave a gap, because each cat is so special.

RIP, George.

How lovely that George was able to spend his last four years being cared for by you. I am sure the water will be fresh enough and his milk cold enough as he rests in his own patch of sunlight at the bridge  :hug: :hug: :hug:
