I have saved whiskers, a tuft of her fur clipped by the funeral company, and some fur from the brush. It just feels like slowly erasing her from my house. πŸ’”

I don’t know what I’m going to do with him. I’m trying to ensure he gets a feed when I see him and parasite treatment once a month, but currently I can’t seem to do any more than that.

May I suggest you print some pictures of her and frame them for the wall. All the other things just end up in a drawer but it would be nice to have a picture on display.

don't worry so much about black cat, he will tell you want he wants and needs πŸˆβ€β¬›πŸ–€

That's a good idea. She was such a beautiful cat.

I do fret. It's a really awkward position to be in and I have my fingers crossed he doesn't get sick, hit, or attacked by another animal.
