Welcome to my new kitten blog! Fionn was born 11th September 2023 and adopted by us 6th November 2023.
My husband and I brought him home the day after our wedding and he has brought so much joy to us! Especially after the passing of our previous cat Jake. To see Jake’s blog, please visit Jake-A-Day.
This will be an attempt at a daily blog for my little boy especially as he grows. Expect daily pictures celebrating him and showing off our cute boy as he grows and matures. Have fun!

Final update:
So it went downhill when he started bleeding from his nose around 11:00. My parents picked me up and took us to the vet to say goodbye. They were kind and patient and helped make him as comfortable as possible until he passed from the anaesthetic.
We got to say our final goodbyes and held him as he went. We let him know he was the good way boy and he gave us the best 15 years of his life. We told him we loved him. TJ was there with him when he passed. We will always have some part of him with us in spirit.
He was the most wonderful kitten I could imagine having and I will always love him. Thank you to everyone for your support. I will be keeping this blog up in recognition and celebration of his life.
Let me know if you want to see any further adventures of TJ. We feel Jake’s spirit or essence may be inside of TJ now. That way a piece of him will always be with us.
I know everyone who saw my boy loves and appreciated him, and that he had so many people who cared for him who had never even met him. This means so much to me. I know he knew he was loved. He was the best boy in the world and I am going to miss him every single day for the rest of my life.
But right now I’m going to try and remember the good days we spent together. This is a blog that shows his happier and sweeter moments. He was always a character, always unique, always special. And I hope he is playing in the forests and chasing after that deer and being looked after by our family now he’s crossed the rainbow bridge. He will always be loved. -Jen

Update:
So he’s gone heavily downhill. Jake is not really himself anymore and he’s clearly suffering. The decision was made so much quicker than I was expecting, but we have to consider his quality of life.
He’s been staring into space, always exhausted and heavily panting, his rib cage has bowed out from how enlarged his heart has gotten. His gums are blue, there’s almost no recognition in his eye.
The decision has been made. Tomorrow, Thursday 31st August, we are sending him across the rainbow bridge. My dad and I found some clay so we can have memorial paw prints made, and we’re looking at what other options we have from the place the the vet works with for it.
This has been one of the hardest moments of my life and everything feels way too soon. But I have to do what is best for my boy. He’s not happy, he’s clearly suffering, he’s not really all there anymore. So as much as we want him to stay, it’s not fair to him anymore.
We love him more than anything. If we could give air from our own lungs to help him live better and longer we would. And we know if there was another option to help him live a happier and healthier and longer life then we would take it in a heartbeat.
He will always be with us in our hearts and if there is a heaven he will be there waiting. If a soul exists, he has one. TJ and Jake will be together tomorrow and hopefully some essence of our boy will live on in TJ.
I don’t think I’ve cried this much in my life, but I need to remember all the wonderful moments we’ve had together. Any last words before 3pm GMT tomorrow I will pass on to him. Thank you to all of you who show your love for Jacob every day. -Jen
