We are now down to a single cat.
Mitts died overnight, sometime on the night of the 8th/9th October.
She died of old age peacefully and quietly.
And another photograph of Mitts taken in my office, again in September, 2015.
Later on today (the 9th) I will bury her in the garden.

Sorry for your loss, Paul.

Well originally Mitts was a Mexican rescue cat so, since that time, she had a very comfortable life. Thank you, Stacey.

Thank you, John. According to Jeannie Mitts was a kitten found on the streets of San Carlos, Mx. Ben, Jean’s previous husband, was not yet ill and Mitts was more like 17 years old so Mitts did have a long and happy life. Ben died in July, 2005. I met Jean in San Carlos in December, 2007 and went out to be with her, together with Pharaoh, in October, 2008. How the years pass by.

Yes, very much so. Mitts was an old cat, ready to die and died peacefully. She had a lovely life, mixed it with all the dogs in the evening when we watched TV in that room, and passed away in peace.
