In memory… and looking forward

Suzy Shipman

If you’ve been following my blog for a while, you’ll be familiar with Bob our elderly cat. Sadly despite being a tough old boy, dealing with his many health issues, it finally became too much in January this year. We had to say goodbye to him, which was awful, and many many tears were shed.

Our home felt so empty without him, so when we felt ready, we decided to adopt a new cat or two!

A few weeks ago we welcomed a new pair of cats into our home – Tabatha and Tiddlywink. Of course they will never replace our beloved Lord Bob, and his quirky, affectionate character, but they have brought smiles and laughter back to our household. They have very different characters and it’s been lovely to get to know them as they get to know us.

I thought that our three cats would make a nice contribution to the Lens Artists Weekly Photo Challenge this week of “Three of a kind”. Three beautiful cats, one up in cat heaven, and two with us here, helping us heal.
