Title: Hello from Daisy & Me
Post by: mervyn7451 on October 19, 2009, 21:42:42 PM
Hi,
I'm Merv & I currently lodge with my cat Daisy,she's 3 & I've had her just over a month after my old cat Orbit sadly passed away in September after a long illness.Daisy came from the ASSISI Animal Sancturary outside Newtownards in N.Ireland.
Orbit was diagnosed with Liver & heart failier in Janurary when he suddenly started putting on weight which turned out to be excess fluid.I miss him terribly but,getting Daisy helped me to get over him in a big way.
Orbit's buried in his blanket in a wood box in the garden in what wil be a flower plot next spring.
This is Orbit:

Thanks for looking,
Merv

Glad you've found us, I'm sure you'll enjoy it here.  It really is a very friendly forum with lots of friendly helpful advice, if ever needed, and of course lots of fun.

I do feel it my public duty to warn you though that it can be a teensy bit addictive  :Crazy: You have been warned  :evillaugh:

Sorry to hear about Orbit  :hug: What a great pic of him in the car  :Luv:

Daisy is beautiful, hope she is helping ease the pain of losing Orbit  :hug:

Hi Merv  :welcome: to Purrs,

Another "overseas" member (I just noticed a new member from Belgium).  I'm so sorry to hear the sad news about Orbit ... he was a lovely looking lad but pleased to Daisy helped you through the grieving and has settled into your life.  She's a very striking looking girl isn't she (a bit like a fresian cow  :rofl: .... that's a compliment bythe way).

Looking forward to getting to know you and Daisy.

Sam, Foxy, Zephyr & Rossi xxx

Thanks everyone,
Orbit was  a great cat & I've had him since a kitten.My ex-gf got this kitten that we thought was a girl,anyway one night the kitten tried to paw a baked bean off her plate & she lost it! She threw the plate & the cat accross the room,the kitten hit the floor with & collapsed. >:(
So I scooped her up & ran to the vets down the street.When I got home,we had a big bust up &,to cut a long story short,I threw her out that night & I kept the kittenthat turned out to be a boy & I called Orbit because of the way he sprung up into the air when startled! :evillaugh:
That was about years ago when I was made redundent from the RAF where I had done 12 years. >:(
As most of my family including my parents are gone,it's just me,Daisy & Susan (the current GF) Whenever I go away with the TA & Sue goes to stay with her parents,Orbit & now Daisy go into 'The Windmill Cat Hotel' which is 3 miles away.Bit more expensive than your ordinary cattery but sooo much worth it! :wow:
Regards,
Merv
