We spent the month before leaving the country, house and kitty sitting for good friends.
Lilly .... the beauty, not so much the brains 🤣
The catwalk
And Tinkerbell ... a clever and funny girl
The girls, well Tinky, have brought a skink in from the garden. We try to release as many as we can.
At the very beginning of the sit, by far the saddest thing we have experienced happened. Our cheeky chap, Alfie, got hit by a car on the main road. The vet let us bring him home for the night, but alas, he was too badly injured and his family had to made the heartbreaking 💔 decision, the kindest decision, to put him to sleep.
Clare was with him while he passed 😔
It took a while to find our mojo after this extremely upsetting time so we just hunkered down with the girls, all healing together ❤️
It was hard not to feel responsible for Alfie's accident. Even though it was just that! An accident. Cats and roads, ya know. Sigh.
Tinky definitely missed him. They arrived at their forever home together as we kittens. We met them even back then. Tinky just got clingier than her normal self and we were happy to oblige.
Lilly and Alfie never got on so she just seemed delighted not to have to put up with him bashing he and she and Tinky got a bit friendlier with each other.
We recovered by catching up with friends and family and snuggling with the girls.
Sigh.
