We had to say goodbye to our dear friend Fripp today after 15 years together. I take the liberty of putting this tribute on the Cassilhaus blog because he was so much a part of the life here. He was an amazingly friendly and social cat and always had to be where the action was. At every opening and every event he was somewhere underfoot or on someone's lap.
Fripp was particularly helpful during installation of artwork.
Hanging out with his sister Siberry
He was an exceptionally good napper.
Fripp was an extraordinary being. Because I work at home we were pretty inseperable. He was a great friend to me and always knew when I needed support and never left my side when I was sick. I can't really imagine life around here without him. Please raise a glass to Fripp when you read this and thank him for a life extraordinarily lived. If you or someone you know would like to adopt a cat or kitten in honor of Fripp there are many that need new homes or you can support the important work of Independant Animal Rescue, Goathouse Refuge or your local animal shelter.
My brother John told me that when it rains really hard it is the world saying goodbye. It has poured all day today. Goodbye and thank you Fripper.
“What greater gift than the love of a cat.”
