Forever Friday - IKKYU on the Island


Hello everyone. #1 here. As I pack up the contents of my cottage in Prince Edward Island, Canada, I have also been reminiscing about the good times I spent here with my first cat, ruddy Aby IKKYU. Back in those days, I had just one cat and so he would go everywhere with me. In the summers, I would pack up and we would come to PEI for a month or two. He really loved the cottage and its many sunpuddles! Sadly, this is also where he started his journey to the Rainbow Bridge, so there is a bittersweet element to the memories.

Here are a few shots of him enjoying his Island summers:







IKKYU, Forever Loved.

  11. Pas simple de laisser un lieu plein de souvenirs.
    Ikkyu a eu la chance d'être chat unique. Je dis la chance parce que celà permet de développer une relation spéciale, unique. Surtout lorsque le chat est un Abyssin.
    Il a eu une belle vie d'aventurier.
    Bonne soirée
