I used to live in Bath, and there was a cat who lived on my street. Not in a house on my street, just on my street. His owners moved away over a decade ago, but he came back. And ever since then, he's just lived on the street, eating whatever he's given, and hanging out with whoever passed by. I tell ya, he made Six Dinner Sid look like the amateur he is! Well, I received the sad news last week that he had passed away, and ever since then, people have been creating a little memorial for him on the corner where he used to sit. And now - the cat has made headlines!

I'm not kidding, he was even on the front page of one local paper. What a star. It just warms my cockles to see how much so many people cared for him; it really raises my hopes in human nature. Apart from a couple of bitter naysayers on the latter link, but we can't help everybody, can we? ^_^

Posted: 9/17/08 at 1:23pmI spent 4 months in England once, parking myself in Chichester, Hereford and the Wye River valley area, and I spent 3 weeks in Bath. Lovely town. I don't remember seeing the kitty though.

He was a big orange cat. Nothing of the Wee Thomas about him! (Although he did once get oil all over him and we had to shower him. Now THAT was an adventure... o_O)

"I used to live in Bath"
At first I thought that said, "I used to live in a Bath"

"All I ask of you is one thing: please don't be cynical. I hate cynicism -- it's my least favorite quality and it doesn't lead anywhere. Nobody in life gets exactly what they thought they were going to get. But if you work really hard and you're kind, amazing things will happen."
