Spice was suffering from kidney failure, and after a stint in hospital and a little bit of hope of recovery things just kept getting worse. We took him for his last visit to the vet this afternoon. We all had our chance to say goodbye, but it was a difficult thing to have to do.

Spice was such an amazing, super chill cat and we’ll miss him. Coffee will never be the same again, as he always used to come for cappuccino foam. Cappuccino foam was how we taught him to sit on command. He was a big cuddly teddy bear who didn’t even mind when our children lay on top of him.

Spice never had a problem with water

How about some fish for dinner?

Goodbye Spice, we’ll miss you
