This is the homepage of a very special guy.

This is the homepage of a guy, who I miss very much...

... i.e. my cat. These pictures are the only things I have left of him, as I've had to give him away. Thanks must go to my buddy Peter Bornhall, who took them! The only way we could get him on film was to hold him real tight, so my apologies for that. No animals were actually hurt during this photo session. ;) Isn't he cute, though?! :) Sudden!

Whoah! Sudden and his brother Alfons (of whom I don't have any pictures, sadly) moved in with me in August 1995, when they were but two months old. Alfons moved out after the first year, because of differences in opinion between him and me, regarding plants, furniture a.s.o. (Alfons thinks that such stuff should be ripped apart, or at least disabled, on sight. I don't agree.) Then, when I moved to Gothenburg, Sudden also had to move, but not to the same address. He moved in with my mom in Kuleskog (Bulletwood). Mom has recently sold the house, but Sudden still resides there. More on this further down...

Sudden with my sis. Sugar sweet, both of them! :) Sudden and Alfons have given me many memorable moments, such as the time Sudden rearranged some potplants all over the livingroom table or when he escaped through the window and wouldn't come back in before he had been thoroughly beat up by the neighbours' cat.
Alfons gave me a good chuckle when he accidentally ran into the wrong appartment one time after a little stroll. The door was open and Alfons went through it at apx. 80mph. I went after him just as he realized his mistake and doubled back, skidding across the floor in the neighbours' appartment, eyes wide open and paws clawing wildly at the wooden floor. He was pretty winded when I finally got hold of him and picked him up.
Sudden used to sleep in my bookcase, behind the books. Probably the only place in my one-room appartment where he could get some peace and quiet. People were always petting him and fondling him, which is pretty OK when you're in the mood, but if you're not... rrrrgh! He also liked stretching himself out across the top of the bookshelf, like a mighty lion on a cliff and looking down on me when I went about my petty business. He let me understand that while he accepted my being around, I shouldn't get any cute ideas regarding who was boss in the house. :)

Sudden on the floor. When we were living together, Sudden used to eat Smukkas (Norwegian pet food), potato crisps and ants (in the patio), among a variety of things. He always liked scratching at windows (No, not Windows™), toying with carpets and generally screwing up everything else in the house. He has an adorable way of cuddling, where he strokes his head against your cheek, all the while purring manically. He can also meow in a way that sounds very much like he's talking to you. I love this little furry companion and was heart-broken when I had to give him up. However, I take comfort in the knowledge he now leads a much richer life at my mom's old place in the woods of Kuleskog (Bulletwood?). Also he has my mom's old cat Felix for a companion, who's twice his weight and age. They both used to go absolutely nuts whenever I visited them. I miss them terribly, and it breaks my heart knowing I will probably never see them again in my life... :¨(
