We were taking our current overlords to the cattery this evening when Pingu pointed out an inmate there that was the spitting image of Pippin. I got quite choked up which was a bit of a surprise 9 years on. Didn't see that coming.

Little furballs leave a big hole in the heart. 

Bet pippin had a great life with you.

Cats are special.
Hard work sometimes pays off in the end, but laziness ALWAYS pays off NOW.

I'm so sorry Ian, it's hard when cats die even if they get to a reasonable age.

I met Cat a few times.

They get to you, and they grab you.

RIP Fuzzy 13/6/08 - 10/4/24

He had a good innings and a great life, and was very much loved.

Cheers folks.  We'd had him since he was a kitten, just a few weeks before Jo and I got married, so he's been a bit of a fixture in our lives and very much a cherished member of the family.  Yesterday evening I kept expecting to hear him purring (he was a big cat with an exceptionally loud purr), or scratching on the larder door, or see him sitting on the doorstep as I came in from the paddock (he was starting to find his catflap too much effort).  He was an absolute git at times, but we adored him.  It's going to take a bit of adjusting to life without him.  :'(
