In memory of Ziggy and Tammy

We had Ziggy and Tammy when they were just 8 weeks old, meeting them at 5weeks old. We were lucky to know their date of birth,who was born in what order and even knowing Tammy was born breach.  Sadly we lost them both last year aged 16, 4 months apart. Ziggy from blindness/stroke on April 8th 2024 and Tammy from cancer 15th August 2024. Ziggy was my first cat,Tammy his twin sister was my mums little girl. Ziggy was my world,my baby and seems strange how he passed as I started fertility treatment . Even stranger that on April 8th 2025 a year to the day we had to say an emotional goodbye I had my 4th ivf transfer (taking photos of Ziggy and Luna/Bella down for the surgery with me) finding out I was pregnant 2 weeks later Unfortunately I’ve since had an early miscarriage and it feels like I’ve lost him and Tammy all over again.  In January this year we adopted 3.5 month old sibling sisters Bella and Luna (our names were inky and midnight) through cats protection and it felt like they were sent by Ziggy and Tammy,Luna is more crazier than Ziggy but I honk he knew that. I talk to them both everyday and know they are supporting me perhaps my 5th and final attempt will be successful and perhaps on Ziggy and tammys 18th birthday they will send me my human child Miss them both so much and go to bed every night with a blanket with Ziggy’s photo on and cuddling an angel bear also with his photo
