Sorry everyone but this is not an addition to the story. I am just writing to inform all those who enjoyed reading the author notes about Moon, that he died today (11th of June 2016) of kidney failure.
I always liked to think he was the world's most famous cat never to appear on YouTube and his constant demands for attention were a great inspiration for some of my writings.
Moon was the first pet I was able to choose for myself and he caught my eye in an interesting way. All the other cats at the Animal Welfare League would either cry at the door of their cage to be let out, or hide at the back, terrirfied of the world around them. Moon however sat in the center of his cage with a look that said "I don't need to cope with life, life has to cope with me."
I looked at him and said "Hello cat."
He turned his head to look back at me and then just flopped over onto his side purring. That was when I knew he was the cat for me and for the next six years he would expect nothing more than a regular supply of tender fishy chunks and lots of head scraching and in return, he would follow me everywhere, even on long walks along a dis-used railway line, as a constant companion.
I will miss the fuzzy little turkey.
Hope to complete some current stories and publish again soon,
Marty.
