   How I managed to get this photo still amazes me. Usually she's off as soon as the camera comes out. Meow is eleven years old and I've had her since she was six weeks old. She is the most special little creature. She doesn't meow, hence the name, but makes the cutest little pllllllrrrr noise when I get home from work. I don't have a choice but to pick her up and carry her around on my shoulder, with her head tucked into my neck, whilst I do my "after work" routine. She waits for me by the door and I'm sure she thinks she's a dog at times. I have never come across a cat that is as affectionate and loving as her. She always makes herself at home on guests rather than me which is very sweet and of course, wins them over immediately. She loves being petted but go anywhere near the baggy, saggy tummy and you will feel the "Wrath of Meow!" Many a time I have ended up with a fur ball on the end of my hand.

    She was diagnosed with kidney disease two years ago but hasn't looked back. She's still as healthy and as feisty (at times) as she's always been. I love her to death and she is totally spoilt. In return her unconditional love is all I need. She never fails to make me smile or giggle about some antic she's been up to.
