Our ‘old boy Ted’ is making his way to Rainbow Bridge to meet up with our other pets. He has been such a wonderful affectionate cat who arrived as a big feral 17 years ago, all hissing and spitting. I trapped him and off he went to the vets, was tested and neutered. I thought when I released him over the fields he wouldn’t be back but that afternoon he was sat in the garden. It took a year to tame him and then he moved in. We previously had eleven cats who landed on our doorstep, as we live in a small village surrounded by farms, hubby always said, there must be a sign showing them where to come!

All our cats had different personalities but Ted was one that certainly found his way into our hearts, we called him our gardening buddy. he loved to hinder and help. We have cried and smiled remembering all his little quirks.

We miss you Ted, safe journey to Rainbow Bridge.
