Last and First

 PO'Monday!

2nd to last photo of outside PO'M.
Last outdoor photo of The PO'M!
Inside Paddy, on my lap.
My love Paddy O'Malley stole my heart very early.

He appeared in the winter of 2010, and we TNR'd him in March, 2011.

Paddy was the only stray that I've trapped so far, who walked out of the trap after being neutered, and strode back to me for some hugs.  

All other cats ran away once free, and only returned when it was mealtime.

The Rainbow Bridge has had too much traffic recently.

Our friend Pocket ran off last week, and he is sorely missed.

Consider leaving a word or two of comfort; trust me, it really helps!

  14. The PO'M was such a lover, even though only in outside places for most of the time you knew him...then those few days inside...I am so glad he got a good taste of it, and it was filled to overflowing with all of your love for him.

    We made a memento/card for Pocket too...
