For Milo

On Monday, the 16th November 2020 my best little friend, Milo, passed away. :cry:
She was 17 years old, lived a long happy life, and passed away after a short illness.

Milo provided much joy to everyone who knew her and she invariably brought a smile to my face whenever she was around. I loved her dearly. Even now, I can still hear her cheerfully meowing as I arrived home from work, and at the end of the day, she was always there to provide a reassuring purr whenever I needed it. I’m sure all the tummy rubs, chin scratches, and patting were as therapeutic for me as it was enjoyable for her. Milo’s passing left me utterly devastated. So, in a way, perhaps it’s understandable that I should choose to do something creative to express my feelings.

For me, this build is not about sadness, loss, or grief. Rather it’s about cherishing the memories and being grateful for having had Milo in my life. Most of all, it’s being able to say goodbye.
Rest in peace, my little friend.

I feel your pain Vincent. We lost our dog to cancer last summer and the memory is still fresh :(

I feel your pain. It pains me greatly that our little companions are shorter lived than we - may Milo be either happy in another life - after all they have either 7 or 9, depending on where - or be happy beyond the rainbow bridge, I personally tend to think Valhalla would befit cats. :(

Your little diorama is deeply touching :( !


Best regards
