I called him Garfield.

Rest in peace sweet kitty and bless the people who took care of you.

Thanks everyone.

As I wrote, I hadn't known him long, just the seven months I've lived here, and kind of only seen him from afar, except on the odd occasion I could spy him in my part of the garden through the window. Given that it seems I am overly upset at his passing.Thinking of him, my eyes filled and overflowed a number of times last evening, as they are now, and I woke up during the night, so sad, with lingering traces of a dream of him.

Taking Bob outside this morning I found myself kind of expecting to see him sitting on Racheal's back step.

I always intended to get a good photo (the one above was taken with the zoom function) perhaps by him trusting me more and letting me get closer but, sadly, it wasn't to be.

Miss you puss.

Such a handsome boy Garfield was. He lived the life of his choosing and how many of us wish we could say that. You helped to make his life even better and, though you'll miss him, he lived life on his terms. RIP, Garfield and peace to you.

RIP Garfield/Puss Puss. You sound like my orange baby O.C. who just went to the Bridge this past April. He was my "resident stray that came to stay" - but not for as long as I would have liked - only 4 short years. I'm sure you'll meet up with him and you'll probably have a lot to talk about since you seem to have a lot in common. Have lots of fun together. Pictured is O.C. on the right.

What a beautiful boy he was. 98% of orange cats are male.

RIP beautiful orangie. You were very much loved.

Rest in Peace Garfield.
