Shit a brick John, you and yours haven’t had a good end to the year. Again, so sorry for your loss, the fur kids are a hard loss and the loss of two in short succession sucks arse in a big way. Hoping you’re all ok and remembering the good times.

Cheers mate. Gully was nearly 19, so he'd had a good innings.

We are cat free since our boy Mr Anderson died, we named him that so I could do my really great Hugo Weaving impersonation when I fed him. I'm loathe to get another one , because I live on a four lane highway and young cats with all nine lives and roads aren't a good mix. But when I move to a quieter suburb , there will be cats.

Ah, God, John that sucks. The house will be feeling very empty.

He looked... formidable. I'm thinking a well dressed Greebo going by the look in his eye!

Damn fine innings. My boy lasted 19 years and 4 months. There is still a ginger boof-head cat shaped hole in my life. They leave paw print on your soul.

Amazing the emptiness that arrives when a good soul departs our lives. My condolences and empathy.

Jeebers, that's rough. Pussy cats are the bestest.

Yeah, 2020 was a wash. 2021? We'll have to see.
