Rainbow Sei: Hello, Dear Friends. I hope you are all well and enjoying the spring if you are in the Northern Hemisphere. There are so many beautiful flowers around Poupounette Central!
Today, we thought we would dedicate our post to the first among us, #1's very first cat and also first Abyssinian. His name was Ikkyu, after a very great Zen monk who was famous for his wisdom and sense of humour. Ikkyu was born in 1992 and travelled to the Bridge in 2007. For 15 years, he accompanied #1 on so many adventures, living and travelling with her on three continents (Asia, Europe and America). He was always an only cat as he was very exclusive. He only ever loved #1! Now he is our wise elder at the Bridge, and we all love him. Here are photos of him, in no particular order.















What a handsome boy he was and you look a tad bit younger in that last shot, #1.
ReplyDeleteOh my, what a beautiful young man Ikkyu was, and what wonderful memory images of him, thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteIkkyu was very handsome with such a sweet face. Lovely photo of him with a younger you.
ReplyDeleteAngle Ikkyu was a charmer, and #1 must miss him greatly.

PeeEssWoo Hi Ollie - glad you have fun with The Golden Pal!
Ikkyu sure led an adventurous life.
ReplyDeleteHe was certainly a sweetheart.
ReplyDeleteSuch lovely photos, he was a most handsome little dude.
ReplyDeleteThere is much joy from a single pet. The family of pets is fun, too, just different. Linda
ReplyDeleteBeautiful boy!
ReplyDeleteHe certainly looks like a wise elder, I'm sure his advice is always very good.
ReplyDeleteCharlee: "Such a handsome little panther! Also, our Dada seems oddly giddy about that funny little computer that went by partway through this post ..."
