our dear Milou – Memorial

When we first adopted Milou in February 2013 he was a quiet boy who was a little wary of us. After a few months he realised he was staying with us and started coming out of his shell, blossoming into a real character.

He was a joy to be around – gentle with children, patient with elderly people, affectionnate and playful. Everybody that came into contact with him fell in love with his cheeky spirit. He spent half his life sleeping on his back with his legs in the air – on buses, trains, in pubs and wherever he could find a sunny spot. He brought so much joy and pleasure into our lives and in return we gave him the best forever home to spend his twilight years. He was loved, brushed, walked, cuddled, given treats and got to play ball whenever he wanted to. It was the hardest thing in the world to say goodbye to our beloved companion but he will remain in our hearts forever. Thanks for giving us the last two years of your life, we only wish we had met many years ago. Rest in peace little one, love Dad & daddy xx
