22nd March - This was taken about 3 years ago, and I'm including it because I don't want to dwell completely on what is happening now.
Bessie loves to make 'nests' outside to sleep in and can hide herself away completely, not responding to any amount of calling! This was taken on the towpath of the Kennet and Avon canal. She looks so serene to me, and so pretty.
Notice her ears, how softly turned over they are now? Since she has become almost totally deaf they never lie like this anymore - as though she is always straining to hear just a little sound.
