  *sympathy. I can spell, honest.

  Thank you so much, Jan. Missing Tom’s hugs just at the moment, with added purrage, so yours very much appreciated.

I am so sorry for you loss. I, personally, am a firm believer in “Rainbow Bridge.” I hope such a thought will help.
1. Sophie 27th July 2021 at 17:43
  
  Thank you, Sue. A very sweet and comforting thought.

Oh, Sophie, I’m so, so sorry. He was such a handsome cat. My deepest sympathy.
1. Sophie 27th July 2021 at 17:45
  
  Thank you Elizabeth. He was, indeed, handsome and a gent. Every time I properly think of him, rather than simply just miss him, I beam.

I’m so sorry to hear this, Sophie. He seemed like a brilliant cat and a wonderful companion xxx
1. Sophie 27th July 2021 at 17:46
  
  Thank you, Helena. He was indeed an ace Writer’s Companion. Took his duties very seriously. At some point he sat on every book I’ve ever written, I think.

I’m so very sorry. Tom was a very special cat with a huge number of admirers who will miss him.
1. Sophie 27th July 2021 at 17:47
  
  Ah, thank you, Liz. For a cat who largely eschewed Company, he does seem to have a surprising number of friends and well-wishers out there. I am so very much touched by that.

Thanks to everyone who sent comments and sympathies. I am sure Sophie will wish to respond, but not today, I think. I hope you will all understand.
1. Sophie 27th July 2021 at 17:48
  
  Thank you, as always, for your understanding, Joanna. True friendship, that.

To lose a furry companion is the hardest thing. TK sounds to have been a joy. Lots of hugs to you, Sophie.
1. Sophie 27th July 2021 at 17:49
  
  Yes, he was, Liz, an absolute joy. And still is and will continue to be, once I get over this present hump. Thank you for the hugs. Needed and appreciated just at this moment.

Thinking of you, Sophie – Tom was such a good friend to you over the years. x
1. Sophie 27th July 2021 at 17:51
  
  Thank you Juliet. You hit the nail right on the head. I’m a great believe in inter-species friendship. I count myself very luck to have had Tom’s.

Rather late commenting on this, but `I’ve been thinking of you all the time since we heard about Tom. Devastating news.
