    Yes, I am. My entry date is 14th September. I was so happy to have found my 'dream ' home, country cottage in the heart of the Dumfriesshire countyside, Scotland. It was a dream come true! Sadly, that dream has soured somewhat, on Thursday just gone (4th August 2:10pm) I lost my ginger cat Plymouth to (FIP) Feline Infectious Peritonitis, a killer virus that attacks and takes your baby away so quick. He was 13 years old and our baby :( He only took ill on the Tuesday, he had to be put to sleep to end painful suffering on Thursday. If you read my latest posts you can see a picture of him if you like. I have made a few posts about him on here in my despair. My life is now agonising and I have no interest in my new house anymore. It seems pointless without Plymouth. My husband and I are struggling to cope :(

    However, I do wish you luck and happiness in your new house, all the best.

    Ember xx

    Oh Ember I'm sorry to hear the news, I can imagine how something like that can cast a big shadow over what would otherwise be quite exciting.

    I know a pet can never be replaced but I hope you get through it and focus on the great times you had with him. He'd want you to :)
