In Memory of my dearly beloved Pots

 

 

I ONLY WANTED YOU

They say memories are golden
well maybe that is true.
I never wanted memories,
I only wanted you.

 A million times I needed you,
a million times I cried.
If love alone could have saved you
you never would have died.

 In life I loved you dearly,
In death I love you still.
In my heart you hold a place
no one could ever fill.

 If tears could build a stairway
and heartache make a lane,
I'd walk the path to heaven
and bring you back again.


Our family chain is broken,
and nothing seems the same.
But as God calls us one by one,
the chain will link again.

Pots amazed me on the show bench, go to my show news page & read of his outstanding success

 

He has now retired from the show bench, his last show was the Maidstone & Medway 2006

 

**********

Pots is a wonderful Sorrel and is now 16 years old

born on the 21st June 1991

his parents were

Manot Geronimo x Manot Foxy Fantasy

 

 

I feel so privileged to have owned & bred such a wonderful cat.

 

I sold "Pots" to a breeder when he was 18 months old as a stud,

(that was heartbreaking to let him go), but it was to help widen to

gene pool further up North, then the couple who has him went through a

marriage break up & he was neutered, he returned to the Emanan fold

when he was 9 yrs old. It took over a year to get him

looking fit for the show bench again, he had not been shown for nearly 7

years & I was worried on how he would behave, but like a duck to water

he was his old chatty self asking anybody who passed to stop & say

hello & a true showman through & through.

 

 

Pots has had a wonderful show career and is still the only male Somali with both

Grand Champion & Grand Premier titles

& now UK & Imperial titles.

He has been BIS Adult, BIS Neuter &

also BIS Superstar three times at the Somali Cat Club show.

He is also the 2nd Somali to gain a Best Overall in Show at an all breed Championship Show.
