Missing Him...


Sei-Chan: A year ago today, our beloved Sen-Chan ("Poupounet") went to the Bridge very unexpectedly, aged only 18 months. I was not even born yet, but he was my half-brother and so I feel that I am part of him. He was also a half brother to Tama-Chan's four little kittens.

We miss you Sen-Chan, your sweetness, your spirit of adventure, and the love you brought to this house.

    dear sen_chan

    We would always remember your energy at climbing trees and going on hikes and of course your super-duper snuggles. We know you are busy climbing trees and walking the long fields at the bridge. Happy New Year to you...

    bSen-Chan was such a great cat. We loved to see his adventures outside with Tommy. And such a cuddler too. I am sure you are all sad today. I hope having such good photos of him and great memories help.

    Your friends,
    Niamh & Ambrose

    We did not know Sen-Chan but he was a beauty, wasn't he? And it looks like he was a great friend to Tommy too. But that isn't at all surprising, everyone loves Tommy. We know you all must miss Sen-Chan but you have such wonderful memories of him too.

    Sen-chan was an old soul with an unforgettable presence. I was fortunate enough to spend Christmas 2008 with him and will remember him always. These photos capture his spirit, style and sense of adventure.

    I remember hearing about Sen-Chan going to the Bridge suddenly and that is how we discovered your blog. We didn't get to know him as much as we would have liked...but we have come to know him through your wonderful memories of him.

    Purrs to all of you.

    Ahhh, he was indeed a very sweet boy with the most expressive face and tail! No doubt his nephews and niece will do him proud.

    Dear Sen-chan,

    I came to your blog in December of last year and so, I didn't get to know you very well. I'm sure that you are doing very well across the Bridge and maybe my dear Q-chan will see you there too.

    Sei-Chan, thank you for the lovely reminiscence about Sen-Chan. We never got to know him...we first came to your blog a year ago to express our sadness over his passing. We've enjoyed getting to know all of you as you've joined the family, and we can see Sen-Chan's influence everywhere, especially in how Tommy gets along so well with his kitty siblings.
