Bye Bye Popster..

Poppy our cat with a purr like a helicopter got hit by a car last night. My neighbour found her at the side of the road, carefully covered her and brought her to me this morning. The children were heartbroken, Murron insisting that we take her to the vet so he could make her better. We buried her under the beech hedge, where the sun shines almost all day and planted some poppies above her. Blue, her brother, immediately went and sat there a while.

I didn't realise just how much she had snuk into my heart and made a comfy little cat sized space until she was gone.
