Sable

2011 — 2024 · Cat · 13 years together

“Thirteen years of perfect, elegant disdain.”

Sable tolerated me. On cold nights she would allow me to be a pillow, but only until 4 a.m. She had a tortoiseshell coat like a map of a country that doesn't exist. I have never been so honoured to be ignored.

The best kind of cat: entirely her own.

Some things are easier to say later. Seal a letter for Sable and choose the day it opens — it stays unread until then, even from this side of the garden.

No letters yet. The first one can be yours — a few lines for a date that does not exist yet.
