I don’t remember a time without Pat in my life, she arrived into our household in 1966 when I was 2, my brother James was 5 and big sister Sue was 9. She never really left, though there were periods of jealousy when we had to share her with the doctors family!
I remember going to the east end of London to get Bella, a collie pup, who was a faithful friend for many years
I remember going to stay with her in my final year at vet school while I saw practice in Southampton, for 3 weeks, where we reminisced and ate my favourite nursery meals.
Pat will be sorely missed by anyone she spent time with, but we are luckier than most as we have a lifetime of memories.
RIP Pat. 💔
