I had a post ready to go for the selfies but I have set it aside. I heard the news this morning that our long time friend and cat blogging colleague Mr Puddy has crossed the Bridge.
We are saddened and upset. Puddy was one of our first features on Dash Kitten’s blog and in his honour I am republishing his lovely interview which still makes me smile. He has been part of our life for so long, losing him is a sad moment for so many in the cat blogging community.
Rest in Peace beloved friend.
Welcome to our interview with worldwide pet blogger Mr Puddy who recently moved to an amazing new home! We have been following his trip and arrival in his new, and rather different, home. This must be one of our most exotic locations yet, so let’s meet the long-haired tuxedo star!
Where in the world are you?
I’m Mr. Puddy, an original handsome Aussie cat. I Lived in Melbourne, Australia for 7 years. Me got a lovely home, Pawsome backyard, huge territory and great neighbours. And then…… my pawrents are sneaky! They packed their luggages and ME! … POOF! … We disappeared from Australia. Seriously!!! My cat friend, Smudge who lives next door didn’t even know Now, Me, MR. Puddy lives in Bangkok, Thailand. * shakes head * Do anyone here used to be kidnapped by your own pawrents?
What I can tell you about Bangkok… It is HOT and da Hot boy like me…. licks paw (Wow Mr Puddy!)
What is your favourite part of running your blog?
Best part of running my blog is… we all kitties got to share everything to each other like endless.. Like.. loving, caring, learning, helping, laughing, crying, information about how to train the human * grin * and blar..blar..blar… Oh and we are on Facebook if you need us!
But the most impawtant is… we all turn to be da pawsome friends to each others =^x^=
What kind of readership have you discovered enjoys your blog?
Most of the kitties, Crazy cat ladies and Human who want to be the cat ..tee..heh
What are the joys and challenges of International Worldwide Pet Blogging?
I think we all are world-wide Kitty bloggers and we got massive meow networking!
The challenges? How we kitties can keep the secret from our human? It’s no way we can read or write. Sure, we kitties still depend on our human to do this kind of stuff so we kitty bloggers need to help each other by commenting. To back up catitude, and the secrets stay with us, CATS!

He was a very special little guy.
He was indeed, Miss Mudpie and Melissa.
Such sad news.
That was a purrfect was to memorialize the incredible Mr. Puddy. We cried too and we still do just thinking about that loss.
I’m saddened by the loss of Mr. Puddy, though I didn’t know him before. I know hard it is to lose kitties. This is a nice remembrance and tribute to him.
We didn’t know Mr. Puddy but We read his Mum’s farewell and it made Us all terribly sad. Sad that he was called to the Bridge too young, and sad that We neffur knew him.
Mr. Puddy was a sweet boy. I cried when I read the news of his passing. XO
What a great interview, and remembrance of Mr. Puddy, who was a wonderful and beloved friend to so many of us. We will never ever forget him.
A lovely post to reshare. Thank you, Majorie. Condolences to Mr Puddy’s family on losing such a wonderful companion.

That is a lovely interview. I am very sorry Mr.Puddy had to leave us. I remember when he first started visiting Boom and then she adopted him. They called the blog “Mr.Puddy Live Here Now.” Some things stick in your mind. Then they moved to Bangkok and it was, “Mr.Puddy, International Traveller.” He will be greatly missed.
