Oh its lovely to go away but its doubly nice to get home !! One person very pleased to see me was my dear Lilly, my friend for 14 years. She is a lilac point Persian, very fluffy, talks a lot and has fabulous china blue eyes.

Up until last June she had a wonderful companion Ferdy, I bought them together, two little balls of fluff……… sadly Ferdy passed away last year leaving Lilly quite sad, she misses him. Right now she is lying next to me purring her little head off!!

Lilly, still grieving

This is my little, Ferdy’s friend of 13 years. I bought them together, remember them being little balls of fluff and sharing the little cats basket. At present she is snuggled in my arms while I type with one hand, she obviously is not liking being on her own and constantly meows all the time. As soon as I pick her up she stops. I feel so sad for her.

Goodbye little one, I have beautiful memories of you ………

FERDY JUNE 1996 – JUNE 2009

This was the last photo I took of my little Ferdy, I posted it here because he looked so cute. For the last few weeks he had been losing weight rapidly after having some teeth out, poor little man never really recovered and just wasted away. He was my constant companion always sitting close and slept nestled by my side. I alway stroked him first thing on waking, and as soon as I got up he bounded to his bowl for breakfast. He had many good and well loved years, 13 in total. His best friend Lily will miss him very much

He’s so cute, but he’s not the only one!

No he is not the only one, in fact I have two little hairy monsters !! This is Ferdy, he came into my life in 1996, along with Lily, his counter part. Having just given back two ferocious little ferrol kittens, pumpkin and ralph, back to the Celia Hammond Trust, these little terrors bit and hissed were off to a more suitable home on a farm, I found myself with an empty “cat place” to fill.

So there I was ringing around for two lost little souls, searching for two little kittens I came across a persian breeder who was prepared to sell me two of her kittens that didnt make the “grade” so to speak, so off I went with cat basket and son to choose these poor little second class citizens. Sitting relaxed on the sofa with a cuppa the breeder opened the door and the cute lttle bundles of fluff entered the room, Lilly immediatly ran around along the back of the sofa and stared at me, Ferdy was just like a chocolate box picture, his big eyes looked up and me and was the next, I could have gone on all day like this, but only had room for two!!

I think they are just beautiful, a little odd looking after having burmese cats in the past, but I grew to love their squashed little faces. Just recently I was having tea with a newly acquainted lady, her cat came in and it looked so deformed with its big nose!! I mentioned to her I had two cats and showed her a photo, she looked oddly, screwed up her nose and declared “oh how ugly” !
