the perfect place was wherever he happened to be at the time

Oh BB, what a lovely, peaceful, contented cat and household! Rufus certainly has sized up everyone in "his" house, and knows them even beter than they know him. (Except Frodo, who understands him perfectly.) I'm so sorry to hear about your precious Dingle. *hugs and snuggles you*

Author Reply: Thank you so much for that. Yes, Frodo understands cats, and Rufus understands his family. He is a very wise cat, I think.

Just beautiful!

Rufus must be an extraordinary cat, if he even allows the girls to play "healers" with him ;-)

"Everywhere was nice, he thought, and the perfect place was wherever he happened to be at the time."

With such a philosophy one can indeed be happy!
And with these Rufus-stories your Dingle will never be forgotten, I'm sure.

Author Reply: Yes, I think Rufus is extraordinary - I'm sure he would tolerate the girls' attention for a while, especially if they bribed him with food. Being a cat he would stick it for a while, until the boredom grew too great.

That philosophy strikes me as a good one, and I'm sure Rufus is a very happy cat.

Yes, I hope Dingle lives on. All cats are special but he was extra-special.
