Thank you everybody for all your kind words it is much appreciated. I did not have as long with Spotty as I expected it was exactly four weeks to the day that he was diagnosed with cancer and then we lost him. Homer woke me up at 5.30 am (I have no idea how he opened the kitchen door which was definitely closed) Spotty passed at about 6 am.
I was very upset over Spotty but it was expected and he is at peace now, but just before Spotty died (missed any planning applications that must have been passed). How can I explain that would make it straight forward, our back garden is open plan and we back onto a major industrial estate, well my pets graves which we thought was on our land (three cats Jess, Cleo and Milly, two dogs, three guinea pigs and one hampster have been "excavated" to make way for Halfords. I have felt sick ever since. I don't really know what to do for the best but at least Spotty's grave which is just inside the boundary line is safe. I have been very depressed ever since.
Once again I am very glad that Purrs is here
