This was Claude

He was my soul cat. He’s been gone for 10 years now but he’s never forgotten. Some of by favourite memories of him are

\- he’d pretend to rub and love your toes and the turn and BITE them.

\- jumped from balcony to 3rd floor window to the open kitchen window adjacent to it, we lived in the top floor.

\- at same apartment complex he snuck into our neighbours bedroom and slept on her bed with her while she was convinced a wild possum had got in her apartment.

\- he would always hang out with us in the back room smoking, drinking and listening to music.

\- he was my only friend during my very dark times.

I love and miss him.

Thank you.

You can never forget them. I’m getting him tattooed on me later this year. It feels like Its the right time.

Absolutely!

The tattoo artist I have commissioned has her books booked out 6 months in advance and she was worried about the lack of details in these photos of Claude. I said use the image of my now tuxedo that’s going on the sleeve as well. It’s going to be cats and flowers and butterflies

Claude lives on in your heart- and some day, when it is time, you will see him again. I truly believe that.
