A trip that we, Gwendolyn and the cats

took every year

When my dog Bear died Joe said

'NO MORE DOGS'

Devon Rex cats

are referred to

as

'the poodle of the cat world'

The closest thing to a dog I was told

So

In June of 1999

Elliot entered our lives

In July Elliot had the experience of travelling

west with us in the car

thus

this was the beginning of his travels

across Canada and the US of A for the

next 11 years

Elliot would start out on the dash

Talk about being relaxed

When Elliot had had enough

of the sun he would move to the floor

beside my feet

Susie always sat on my lap

However

I see that Elliot joined her

AH COME ON 

The two of you are heavy, heavy, heavy

*************

What a Cat!!!!!!

He would greet us at the door each and

every time we came home

He slept by my side every night under the covers

He and I had a ritual where I would tuck him

close to my side

put my arm around him and he would

purr, purr, purr

He was always in the centre of things when 

friends and family were around

Didn't want to miss a thing!

Everyone is down for the count

It's ok Elliot
