Memories of Eric and Flynn

This is our new blog. You can find our old blog at http://ericandflynns.blogspot.com We will be keeping it up permanently.

Location: Plymouth, Devon, United Kingdom

We are ginger and white brothers and enjoy sharing our adventures together walking in the fields. Sadly Eric left for the Rainbow Bridge on 19.03.2013. I joined my brother on 1st May 2017 so now we are together again for all time.

Friday Flashback - Ear Scritches.

This week the Flashback comes from September 2011.
Eric: This is a thorn tree and it is very good for giving your self ear scritches.

It's not bad for chin scritches either.

Flynn: Hmm, this tree smells of Eric.

Oh well, I will use this one for sharpening my claws instead.

How convenient to have a tree that can scratch your ears and face even if it does smell like your brother ;) Miss you guys.

You so own the place. And do it so politely and emphatically too - we tend to mark with our other ends!

The boys had an enviable life indeed. So many simple things enjoyed to the fullest! We can only hope the the other side of the bridge is as wonderful as their beloved farm.
Love Eric’s face and expression in the first photo. Reminds me of a Victorian painting.
All of our love always.

Thorn trees seem to have a bad reputation, but you have changed that for the better! Love how you marked it as your purrsonal scritch giver!

I use my rough sisal scratching post to scratch my chin and ears and then I work my claws on it. TW doesn't like me scratching my chin on it cos she says it irritates it and gives me acne.

That was a cute flashback. I love seeing their sweet little faces. XO

Now that thorn tree looks just the right height and spot for the travelling gentlemancat to use. I have a favourite piece of fencing (or two) and some bushes that I scent-mark. For me scratches have to be boxes and Mrs H, MOL

A thorn tree? That's sounds pretty pokey. But we love that Eric and Flynn figured out so may good uses for it. :)

That seems like such a good place to get some scritches. Good place to get your nails sharpened up too. Good to see you boys.
