farewell my stripy furry friend

so, the day we are due to leave for stockholm i learn that our friendly little kitten from along the road has been hit and killed by an idiot in a red car. i know of, nor ask for, any other details, although i think i may have heard the car when upstairs packing but didn’t realise what had happened, however i know some of the neighbours came out into the street so hopefully you weren’t alone.

apparently the little cat had been a stray and some neighbours had been making sure it was fed and cared for and, of course, like a number of the neighbourhood cats came to us for cuddles.

i will remember your delight at being given a fuss, your eager little face, the sound of your purring, your beautiful markings – tabby and ginger stripes with a white and peach tummy and paws.

you will be missed my happy little furry friend.
