RIP Jakey Boy

Totally gutted that our lovely boy Jake got run over by a car last Friday.

Some of you will remember him entering a couple of PJs comps.

Farewell beautiful boy. Too young to die at 3 years old.

Fuck that sux Pete, cats are my fav animal. Never owned by anyone, totally independent & only hang around and tolerate you till you stop feeding them and then they fuck off.

Mate he was just the best dude we've ever had.

I know what you mean about cats generally but this guy just loved hanging around with us.

Yeah they are so cool, we have a 14yr old boy who sleeps in our linen cupboard everyday, shits in the neighbours garden and sleeps in the Mrs arms every night.

Kills anything that enters our backyard and claws the fuck out of our furniture.

pete, sorry to learn this news tonight. Max has had more than his share of bad luck with cats getting skittled. Heartbreaking, esp if they have formed a bond with you and/or the family members. RIP Jakey Boy.

Lovely photo Pete. Jake sure to of left you with many fun memories.

Both my 2 passed about 2 years,  with age kidney stuff and that , got them as kittens for the kids just before they started primary , and they did the long haul till they both finished Uni . now the 2 kids have left as well, and gone from the country exploring the world,  and so 'very quiet' around the place now 🥲 . Cats and kids sure give you some great times ......

Sad news Pete, I just hope Jakey Boy didn’t suffer and went in a split second.

We are cat people, and have had 6 cats over the past 40 years, and thank goodness none of them has been run over, but have lived to old age.

Its always heartbreaking when you lose a pet.

Thanks Gordy. He did go in a split second.

Like you we've always had cats since 1990.

This is the first one this has happened to and it's just heartbreaking.

So sorry to read about Jakey Boy, Pete.    A short but much loved life.     Can't beat Tabbies, they are such characters.

Introducing Laurence ...   he's not much of a mover and groover, more of a crawler and sprawler.   He usually manages to just get in the cat door or just enter a room before falling over into this position ...

Thanks Maria. Some cats are just total dudes. With Jake he just loved having his tummy rubbed. Never a claw in sight. Laurence looks gorgeous.

Haha, we have really progressed this Cat discussion.

Well Pete I can tell you in the last 12hrs we have had dramas in this house around cats. My daughter (20yrs old) awoke the whole house with yelling about how Coco had smeared shit on her duvet at 2am this morning. At 6am he dragged in a fucking mouse & let it go & its currently still alive under my wine fridge. Just 30 mins ago he clawed the roller blinds because a fly on on them.

Right now hes banished to outside until I can tolerate the sight of him again.

Tikka is gorgeous, love that white 🙂       You are so right about tabby dudes... Laurence is currently sprawled on a countdown paperbag that I put on the floor whilst unloading groceries .. which he wrestled with and then subdued into submission and flattened.. and has now fallen asleep  ...   we are cooking dinner around him ..
