RIP Little Tigger

Sadly, before we headed south in January we had to put our dear little Tigger down. He was a precious little fellow who found us nineteen years ago on a cold March night! After hanging around our house for two nights it was apparent that he was homeless so we took him in. He matched the king of our house, Cheetah. Both were tan coloured, long haired tabbies. A few years apart meant that they were not BEST friends but they tolerated each other and often were found snuggling up together. Tigger's hair caused him some grief. It often became matted so we had to have him shaved a couple of times a year. He looked a lot like a lion after each shave. Less fur in the house, no matts and much cooler for him in the summer. Putting a long time friend down is very hard to do. Tigger went into kidney failure in July and did not want to take medication and would not eat the recommended food so he lost weight very quickly. This is the picture I took of Tiggs the night before he went to The Rainbow Bridge! We miss this wonderful little man!!!

Phoenix Feb/Mar 2013

Long time ...no write. We are here in Phoenix and have been for the past couple of months. Our condo is looking good!! I love shopping for nic naks at the Goodwill store here. It is absolutely amazing what you can find. Our vases and artwork have all come from there at a price that is next to nothing. Take a peek at some of our finds.

 

The furniture is mostly new. We got the coffee table at a consignment store and the rust chair is from home. Even the lamp is Goodwill....with a new shade. I love shopping for those extra special finds!
