PIXEL

We got Pixel from a cat rescue centre 19 years ago (we got her sister Killie [Killashandra Re, really] at the same time, but she died a few years ago).

Apparently, Pix spent the first 7 months of her life locked in a shed. When she came to us she had clearly been abused and didn't like people too much.BUT she had a wonderful purr - that was the reason we took her really.

She was a very loving cat, except she wouldn't let you pick her up (well you could, but you had to have a good reason). She was always gentle (apart from beating-up a dalmatian many years ago).

Anyway, Pix had to be put to sleep last friday: she'd stopped eating and really wasn't happy. I don't think I subscribe to the idea of animal souls (nor human either), but she was a wonderful pet and we're going to miss her.
