Big Ben

Nicole and PJ's Big Ben passed away yesterday. We never knew his real age as he came from the pound fully grown. The vet thought he would have been between 10 and 12 years old. His first few years were spent in the city which wasn't really his cup of tea. He came into his own on the farm and he really blossomed both physically and psychologically. He will be sorely missed by humans and beasts alike. He is being cremated and his ashes are coming back to "his" farm where he will forever oversee all of the other critters.

Missy Pots also has left us within the last week. The last little while has been tough on the girls losing two much loved pets. Missy Pots was a great cat with a very unusual look - she was a match to Willie with her white body and black, yellow and white head and tail.

This is also my favourite photo. It is the essence of Ben.
