it seems to be a bad year for cats in my family

First my moggy, now the stepbro's Russian Blue. Found lying in the hallway at the parentals this evening. No idea why.

I think they're a bit in shock. She was only 7 years old, seemed quite fine this morning when I visited, and then...boom!

Bye-bye, Kiki. We'll miss your attempts to be human by sitting at the dinner table, your attempts to be friendly by insisting that we pet you on your terms, and your prim elegance measuring us up when we came to visit.

So, cat count at start of year: 3. Cat count by end of August: 1.

Not a good year for cats around here. :(

Oh, dear! Seven is young, even for a cat.

I sincerely hope that this is the end of that trend! And that spring will come soon, bringing life and hope.
