My cat died yesterday. He was a real close friend to our family and he was the last of a litter we had for years, and he had all the character of his mother and father. His name was Hafeez, as he was born on the same day as the Sudanese bass player in my mum's African dance band. Hafeez the cat shared the bassist's characteristics; he was black, ate curry and slept a lot. It's been a sad day. I'll post a picture later, when I can find one.
