    LOL bless :D

    Ok, tea done (DH made it tonight......I had to go with ex to put my beloved puss to sleep. I left him with him when we split, as I was moving near a very busy road. He had feline aids, leukaemia and quite probably a brain tumour. It was heartbreaking)

    I'm keeping busy, so I have the tea pots to wash. Since tea, I have handmade bread, done another load of washing, and I'm waiting on the bread to rise so I can bake it.
    Proud to be dealing with my debts :T

    Big hugs Hawthorn, never an easy decision to make. It is the final act of kindness though.

    Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times and I'll smash your face in. :D

    I haven't seen him since a couple of weeks before christmas - he was so thin, and he was a cat that used to strut, and was always into everything.
    There was just no light in his eyes at all. His face didn't even twitch when you touched his whiskers.
    He did purr and give me a cuddle though, so he did recognise me.
    I got him at 5-6 weeks old. His mum had been killed on the road, and I had to clean his bottom for him to keep him clear.
    He was only seven.
    The vet did say that there was absolutely nothing could be done for him :(

    That's because he knew you loved him and you made him happy. He was very young to be so ill.. poor puss.. glad you were brave enough to let him go though.. I am a wimp and sent hubby with ours when she had to be put to sleep.. I stayed at home and cried like a baby.
