This weekend we celebrate the lives of two of our angels. I still had a way to go with my photography in those days so the portraits are simpler. We lost Peanut on 5th September and Dash on 6th September some years apart.
Dash was a lively, busy and popular social media cat and when he was killed in a dog attack many friends mourned his passing all over the world. He was instrumental in fundraising for and helping with many cats and people. He was part of a pet community that was saving lives and keeping people in homes.
We always remember him trying hard to help find a home for sweet cat Precious who ended up with Brian’s family.
Peanut came over from Great Britain with her sisfurs Little ‘Un, Cuzz-Wuzz and Sooty and was the Cat in Charge of the family! She was 9 when we left, and 18 when she crossed the bridge. She was effortlessly the Boss without lifting a paw – we should all be more like Peanut.
My not so brilliant photos go to show, a memory can be a simple photo that raises a soft smile and many memories.
They are never gone – they are in our hearts.

Precious babies. Angelversaries are always very hard days.
Hugs to you as you remember your angels.
Such sweet memories. And no matter the image quality, we fill in the gaps.
Have a wonderful week
