Dear Joshy,

It’s been a week since we said goodbye and life just feels so much emptier now you’re gone.  My heart is still aching.  I miss your little face when I walk through the door, your silent meows, your overly erect tail.  I miss your warm furry body slugging out on me on the sofa at night, nudging me for more fuss, your nose kisses.  I miss you snuggling up to me in bed, tapping my face to get under the covers so you could nestle against me.  I am sad you are not currently walking over my keyboard as I try to write this, sad that I used to get frustrated by it when today I’d do anything for you to be getting in my way.

But most of all, I miss your unwavering, unconditional love.  You will never know how much you kept me going through the tough times.  Through the times I just didn’t think I could cope.  You were always there.  A constant.  A big, warm ball of fluff, who never tired of my company, always wanting to be with me, always making me smile.  S

leep tight, my beautiful boy.  You will always, always be in my heart xx
