A Christmas Dream

This is the dream Luvbug had the other night...

 Scooter and Fluffy, Summer 2010

He dreamed that I was giving Scooter his medicine. I had it in my hand and he was just licking it up, no trouble. Then, Fluffy walked towards us to have a look and I said,

"It's OK, Fluffy. You don't need these any more!"

And she faded away.

It was her anniversary on the 13th. She has a little candle by her box of ashes, an angel, and a little box, decorated with cat pictures, containing her last collar and a clipping of her hair. This is all on the side near my chair, with Christmas cards around. She loved Christmas, the sparkle and twinkles fascinated her. She would lie belly-up under the tree looking up through it at all the glittering lights. I miss her, but I'm glad she isn't hurting any more. It wouldn't be Christmas if my friend were hurting.

Scooter now has 4 cardboard boxes scattered around the floor. Various deliveries have provided him with this choice. If I try to clear one up he wants that one :)

Have a purrfectly happy Christmas, everyone!

What a wonderful sweet dream Luvbug had. I'm so glad you have that remembering place for Fluffy.

I felt our sweet tuxedo cat, Mrs Peepers, jumping on our bed and nuzzling into the back of my legs for over a year after she passed in 2007. I know that sounds crazy to most people, but that doesn't bother me.

I love how boxes are cat magnets! Even ones that can only hold a small part of their big furry bodies.

Happy Christmas! Lots of love x
