One of the two surviving Burmese cats from our final breeding has just been put to sleep.
She was born on Guy Fawkes Night, 2006, on a Sunday and by Caesarean - heck of a vet bill - and because any sales would not have begun to cover it, we kept one and virtually gave her brother to our very good friends.
But this was her third serious urinary infection and she was just not strong enough to fight this one.
She was the star of a mini series which I blogged at the time, called The Little Cat Diaries (rivalling a TV series airing at the same time called The
Big Cat Diaries) and although it wasn't her real name, we called her The Botherer, because that's what she did to friend or stranger, as soon as they walked into the house.. they are fearless little beggars.
Because her colour was Tortie (Google is your friend) I always thought it was French for "wrong", so to me she was also known as The Wrong 'Un.
Yes, her mother is still with us, but she's going to be as lonely as all get up and introducing another cat to a 14 year old one won't be easy.
Our breeder’s prefix is Argento and her official (Cat Fancy) name was Lady Louise
So - RIP Argento Lady Louise Noodle - your mum Lola and your big brother Amstel will catch up with you one fine day!
Night night, Wrong 'Un
