Friday Flashback and Caturday Art, Flynn

 This post is dedicated to Flynn. It doesn't seem possible that it was nine years ago today that he had to leave us. These are some of our favourite photos of Flynn.

Flynn 08-04-2000 - 1.05.2017. Forever loved, never forgotten.

Posed so perfectly in the V of the tree.

The Mighty Hunter and the pounce.

Success!

Always the poser.

Just relaxing.

The Guardian of the leg!

Remembering Flynn 2000-2017

 Six years ago today you had to leave us and join your brother. We will never stop loving or missing you both.

Here are just a few of our favourite photos of you, our darling boy. Love you forever.

An all time favourite in the big old oak tree.

The Mighty Hunter rarely missed a mouse.

Always ready to pose for the camera.

Able to sleep in any position.

Flynn's Memorial page can be found here.

Friday Flashback for Flynn.

The flashback this week is for Flynn. It will be five years on May 1st when he went to join Eric. It still hurts as much as ever that they are no longer with us.

Forever loved and never forgotten.

The Mole Hunter from August 2006.

 

Come on effurrybody. I've got supper furr us. Hope effurryone likes mole!!

 

Yep it's dead. Those vishus deer had better watch out. I's afraid of nuffin!!

   

Come on mum, get the barbecue lit, let's get it cooked.

Some favourite photos:

Always a poser.

He loved his boxes.

An expert tree climber.

Lone patrol wishing his brother was still with him.

He loved to roll on the warm concrete.

An all time favourite looking out from the big oak tree.

Two years! How can it be two years since you had to leave us?
We miss you so much and that will never change. The pain never goes.
The only consolation is that you are with your brother who you missed so much when he had to say goodbye.
There are so many words I want to say but they can never be enough. I hope the photos will say them for us.

Your love of climbing trees.

The Mighty Hunter. You sat for hours waiting for the mole to come to the surface and wouldn't give up until you got it.

And of course you would always pose for your photos.

Flynn, our darling boy, we will never stop loving you and Eric, ever.

Friday Flashback and Caturday Art.

This week the flashback comes from April 2012 and features Eric who....
Won't Get Fooled Again.
Why are you holding your phone out to me?

Do you want me to speak to someone?

That's cheating! You didn't tell me it was a camera in disguise. You won't be getting away with that sneaky trick again!

Of course I can't leave Flynn out, so here is a one photo post of his from a couple of days later.

Mum was refilling my nippy toys and the tub fell off the cat tree. Score!!!

I am joining Athena the Cat Goddess for Caturday Art.

I used the last photo of Eric and started with Sadness at 25%, followed by Beauty at 40% and finished with Red Blush at 35%.
I did a 2nd picture with the Deep Dream Generator, and this one was using "A Winter's Tale."

Of course there is a puzzle.

Remembering Flynn

It is a year since you had to leave us. How can that possibly be?
It seems like only yesterday that you were lying on your back with your curled toes in the air.
Rolling around on the concrete enjoying the sun.
Twelve months, 365 days, and yet at other times it seems so long ago.
But truly it seems impossible that we haven't been able to cuddle you, or tickle that adorable tummy for a year.
We love you so much and always will do so, just as we do with your brother Eric.
We are grateful for all the love and companionship you have given us. Nothing can take that away.
It is unfair that so much love leads to heartbreak which never goes.
Life goes on for us but it will never be the same.

You were always there when I was on the computer. Maybe not helping, but you were there.

You always found the best sunspots even if it meant perching on my shoulders when I was trying to read the newspaper.

Unlike Eric who never really liked having his photo taken, you were always ready to pose for the camera.

You loved to be out in your fields keeping the mousie population down.
You would be kept busy now as there has been a population explosion with no ginger brothers to keep it under control.
Love you forever our darling boy.
