I can’t believe I’m writing
this. Fizz didn’t come home for breakfast yesterday (6th May) and I
mentioned I was worried on Facebook. Danielle from Paws and Mittens (the cat
rescue Harley came from) had had three calls about a dead cat in a road near us
and she saw my post and called to let me know. It must have been such a
difficult call for her to make. She knew from the description she’d been given
that it must be Fizz.
Fizz always went out last
thing at night, then came in when I got up with Dusty and spent most of the day
sleeping on my bed. She lived life to the full, loved the life she had and
filled our hearts.
A man had kindly picked her
up out of the road.
Such a huge personality, it’s
hard to believe we won’t ever see her again playing in the spray from the hose
or sunning herself on the trampoline. Dusty is so quiet and sad and Harley
keeps looking round the garden or sitting on the back wall keeping watch and
just seems lost.
All I can think is that she’s
snuggled up with Indy now, all curled up in his soft fur like she used to when
she was little.
These are the last photos
taken of her at the weekend with Dusty sharing her sunny chair with him.
RIP darling little Fuzzy

I'm crying now. Poor little Fizz. I felt so down yesterday after you said on FB that you thought it might be her that had been killed. Such an awful thing to happen. Hugs to you all. xxx
ReplyDeleteIt is awful isn't it. Such a shock. We'd only been saying that if she lived the long life of our last cats, she'd be with us when we were in our 70s. Feels so wrong that she's gone xx
ReplyDeleteI suspect the loss of little Fizz has affected more people than even you realise, Teresa. She endeared herself to so many through all those lovely photos on your blog. I can only imagine how distressed you and your family must be feeling at the moment. Sending huge hugs to all of you. Rena xx
ReplyDeleteThank you for your lovely comment, Rena. I do feel as if we are all part of a blog family xx
DeleteSad news indeed. We blog readers will miss her too.
ReplyDeleteThank you xx
DeleteThis is such terrible news, Teresa. Poor darling little Fizz - a huge personality as we all saw from your lovely photos. She is definitely cuddled up with Indy now but that won't help you deal with the hole she has left behind. Sending love, hugs and huge sympathy.xxxx
ReplyDeleteI have never known a cat like her, Lydia - she was more like a dog with her antics and yet she'd snuggle into your neck sometimes and purr so loud. Thank you xx
DeleteOh, that's terrible, Teresa. Feeling so sad for you.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Sue xx
DeleteIt's awful news, Teresa, and such a shock. I feel very sad for you all.
ReplyDeleteFizz had such a full, wonderful life and will never be forgotten. These pictures are beautiful, showing how happy and contented she was. We will all miss her very much. xxx
Thank you, Joanna xx
DeleteHugs, Teresa. Thinking of you all. I hope Dusty and Harley can comfort each other - and you, too.
ReplyDeleteMuch love
xxxx
Thank you, Pat. Dusty is still very quiet and Harley keeps hiding behind the door as if she's waiting to leap out. Dusty's made a few overtures to her, trying to get her to play with him like Fizz did, but she'll only rub noses with him xx
DeleteI'm so sorry to hear about this. RIP
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jenny xx
DeleteI'm so, so sorry, Teresa. What a horrible blow. I know how much your beloved animals mean to you. Love x
ReplyDeleteThank you, Frances xx
DeleteSuch sad news Teresa, and just when you had your new little family of animals. You couldn't have changed a thing. Cats are so independent, you can't keep an eye on them like you can with dogs. If there is an animal Heaven, I'm sure she's there.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you're right, Maggie. I like to think she's with Indy now xx
DeleteYour little family feels like our own, Teresa, as you so generously share your lovely photos with us, The heartache that comes when our beloved pets die is the price we pay for loving them so much, but we wouldn't have it any other way or else we wouldn't have pets. We will all miss Fizz... but not as much as you x
ReplyDeleteThank you, Wendy xx
DeleteIt's just awful. Glad you have the photo's, such a shock for you, and we all feel your pain. Lots of love coming your way...... xxxxxxxxx
ReplyDeleteThank you, Susan xx
DeleteI'm shedding a few tears for you just now, Teresa. What a very sad phone call to receive. x
ReplyDeleteI did feel for the young lass who had to make the call, Rosemary - she works so hard rescuing cats and kittens and has to deal with some awful situations x
DeleteVery sorry to hear this news, Teresa.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Bernadette xx
DeleteVery sorry, Teresa.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Keith xx
DeleteOh no. :-( Oh Teresa. I am so so sorry. I'm tearing up. Poor little Fizz. Oh dear, I am so sorry. Take care
ReplyDeletex
Bless you, Kitty - I know xx
DeleteDear Teresa,
ReplyDeleteI read that profile update of yours on Facebook. I was hoping it wouldn't be true. I'm deeply sorry for the loss of your beloved Fizz. Treasured memories in photos and in your heart.
Gary x
I so hoped it wouldn't be true either, Gary. Thank you for your kind comment xx
DeleteI am so sorry Teresa. Its heart-breaking. Hang onto the fact that she's with Indy now.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Colette xx
DeleteI have only just read your sad news Teresa. I was so sorry to hear about Fizz but so glad you have Dusty to take up your time. The only downside of owning pets is losing them eh? X
ReplyDeleteThat is the worst part isn't it x
DeleteI can't believe what I've just read, it's made me cry. I'm so sorry, thinking of you all. xx
ReplyDeleteThank you xx
