Yesterday I said Good-Bye to Mr. Tinkles/Amun/Katerchen
The widower found a permanent home for him. I hope Katerchen will be happy there.

To tell the truth, I don't really miss him. It was nice having him for almost two months, but I didn't really connect to him. He wasn't the cat for me.


Also yesterday nine years ago my father died. I can't believe it is that long ago. I still miss him.

1. Are you the child
in his arms or the child smiling behind his shoulder? I am so very sorry for the loss of your father.

3. He had to leave
:(

I'm sure he was an interesting house guest, but it's time for him to go home. :hi:

The cat is nice enough to let me come in at my parents' house.

4. It was nice to have him for the time
but I am also not too sad that he left.

Your parents cat is a beauty. I am sure he/she knows it :D

9. Of course
and he's the guard cat. When anyone he knows drives in, he greets them. If he doesn't know them, he runs.

Now, Mr. Tinkles is off planning on how to take over the world. :silly:

10. Goodbye my sweet Mr. Tinkles
You did a good job being his foster mommy MissH. I hope his new owners are on to his diabolical plot to take over the world though!

Hugs and love to you at this anniversary of your dad's death. I think we will miss those we've lost forever. Remembering the good times always helps fill that ache in our hearts. I love that picture of you and your dad. You've got his eyes which always have a twinkle of mischievousness in them. :loveya: :hug:

sooner or later :evilgrin:

Thanks tNPIG. Yes, we will always miss them. Over the time it gets less painful, but they are always in our hearts. :hug: :loveya:

And you are correct, he had a mischievious streak :) And a great sense of humor.
