Tammykins Booboo by Ron, Hazel, Deb and Bev Pearson / Your family, Ron, Hazel,
Debbie and Beverley.

Tammy turned up on our doorstep, miaowing, on October 31st 1990, aged about six months, and we took her in when no-one else came to claim her.
For 16 years she’s been part of the family, from the day she arrived as a sprightly little cat, making us laugh at her antics, until age caught up with her and she sadly died from heart failure. We’ll miss you Tammykins.

No more cat tracks on the floor.
Muddy scratches on the door,
Puffs of hair upon the stairs,
Lacy fretwork on the chairs.

Indentations on my bed,
Markings where she laid her head,
Smudges on the window-pane
Showing where she watched in vain.

Haunts where she was wont to lay,
Remind us that she is away,
My house is neater, that is true,
But,oh, how still and empty, too!

Anon.

 

Love and tickles,
Tammykins Booboo
