Not one of the most inspiring theological posts I know, but after 17 yrs both of our cats have now died. We had to have Roxanne (named after one of my favourite films: the one with Steve Martin and the nose!)finally put down, she hadn't been well for some time but it finally came to that time when it was kinder to stop the suffering. Charlie our other cat died earlier in the year also aged 17.
I have to keep stopping myself from saying and doing little things, anyway I will miss her.
As for the title of the post I have no conclusive answer, but if they are I have just one hope, that they can feed themselves and clear out their own litter tray!
On a lighter note we have begun the annual 'lets light the street up' campaign. Some of our Christmas lights are up, note that's some, we still have more! As usual our neighbours are very happy about that!
