That's a strange, but very comforting tale. He was obviously a great presence, not only to you, but to the neighbours as well.

Thats a good idea but I couldn't do that because if I did by chance happen to sense him I would break my heart,

Re: Well well well.


That is such a beautiful story - I totally believe these things - there have been loads of times I have seen past animals dropping in for a visit.

Wow Kazz, must be very emotional for you. Somethings cannot be explained. I would find it very comforting if that happened to me

Re: Well well well.


That gave me goosebumps! I really truly believe they've seen him and that he is coming back to be where he was happy and loved...some things just can't be explained....

Me too (to the goosebumps)!!! But what a touching, warm and comforting thing to be told. Very moving to think that Oscar is looking out for his loved ones and is staying close by.

Re: Well well well.


That's fascinating.
I have no qualms about seeing Tizz (which is actually the inside of an old coir hanging basket) in the garden most days but it is strange for other people to maybe see/sense things too.
Mmmm. I dunno. ???????

Re: Well well well.


I mentioned this to my brother in law today and he left then phoned he'd thought about it and said "I doubt anyone who knew him would see him, as he (BIL) doesn't think when he thought about it that anyone seeing a ghost would know they were seeing a ghost at the time, as he doubted ghosts meant to scare anyone. And if I'd seen him I'd have freaked"

And do you know he's possibly right, and if you think about it was a lovely hot/warm summers day me relaxed in the garden with Cleo, which is just the sort of day Oscar would have been out and about remember last year with his conjuncititis it was just maybe the right time. I don't know, I just don;t know I know these people had no reason to say anything at all it was purely a question ie "yourt other cat gone in?" sort of thing like I;d say they are a retired couple in their 60's.

Odd I will never know and Iwill not let it worry me. Cleo was unbothered and thats she is what I care about. so as long as she's happy so am I.
And relieved in a way as Cleo is getting no younger, maybe Oscar is there for her as much as for me as she seems much more relaxed lately and not as lonley as she was before I had put it down to time but maybe not all of it is. They spent almost every day together for over 23 years
