I'd really like a copy please.

 

I was thinking that we could come up with some topics that we think would be good in the book and then look to start collecting relevant info from posts stef made.

so for example if we did do something like a guide to owning a cat we could look at topics such as

finding a cat or kitten
Preparing for their arrival
Making introductions
Playtime
Food, and food problems

These are just some ideas off the top of my head and I know she may not have provided advice on all of them...

Maybe we can start with trying to figure out the topics?

 

I think her most valuable contributions were in Diet and Health Problems and Cat Behaviour and Training. I don't know what we are to do without her. So many people come asking for her advice because she has helped them before.

 

Maybe we should start with those topics and then see how/if we expand out further from there?

 

Hope this works... Here's the PDF of the tribute book interior. Anything anyone wants changed, please let me know in the next day or two before it goes to print.

@Annealise I'm guessing you're the best person to get the printed book sent to, so that you can pass it on to Stef's husband? If so, could you please PM me your address?

 

I have just caught up and read through all of these beautiful tributes. You have done such a wonderful job with the book. Thank you for your time and consideration in doing it.

 

Thought we could add our names on here to request the proposed compilation book, (being made at a later date), of Stef's invaluable topics/advice.

Thanks to @NaomiM /others in advance.

What format are you thinking it should take? Apologies if that's answered further down. My own feelings are that some sort of online resource would be best, as it makes it easy to link to other resources - iCatCare or Pinmore Labs are examples. I'm willing to help with that side of things, I run several cat-related websites.

 

I think a book or a website would be fab tbh - or even both. But agree that the ability to link out to other useful resources would be ideal.

If it was something physical then it would potentially be a way to continue to raise funds for the chosen cat rescue.

 

It looks great @NaomiM, thank you for organising xx

 

Looks great, well done x

 

Just read it and weeping all over again. Thanks and big well done Naomi, I’m sure Stef’s family will be stunned at how much she meant to us all.

 

That's wonderful, well done Naomi, what a lot of hard work you've put into it.

 

Beautiful, truly. A stunning tribute xxx

 

Oh you have done a beautiful job @NaomiM

It's really lovely.

Thank you

 

I'm not much good at covers, so this is very basic, but it has the lovely photo of her on it. @Annealise
(Back, spine and front in one file.)

 

@NaomiM beautifully done - I hope it brings comfort to Stef's family to know that she was so well regarded and so well loved by all of us.

 

Would it be appropriate to have a photo of the floral tribute in it somewhere?

 

Good idea - I'll get on it

 

I could also add a collage of everyone's lovely candles that they lit?

 

That would be appropriate and show were were thinking of her and with them in spirit on the day of her funeral.

 

That is wonderful. Thank you for all the time and work you have put into this @NaomiM

 

This is beautiful

 

@NaomiM: Thank you for your hard work: what a great job you have done.

 

I'm a crack proof reader (not that I would normally blow my own trumpet! :Hilarious) and have a vague understanding of many of the subject matters, so happy to help with editing etc if needed.

 

Great idea!

 

Just waiting for @Annealise 's words now, and then I'll put the order in with the printers.

This is amazing @NaomiM.

 

@NaomiM I'll pm you my personal tribute now in a pm.

The addition of all the pics of our candles is just so lovely.

 

I have placed the order with the printers. Delivery by 29 April.

 

If it's any help just found this sticky by Steff on Elimination Diets

That is wonderful!!!! You are an absolute star @NaomiM

I think you truly deserve a prized PF cat chat pen!!! If you PM me your address I'll see if I can find one to send you.

 

Aww thanks, but no pen necessary - it's honestly a privilege to be able to help. So many on here have amazing talents, be it for art, making things such as cat toys, soap or candles, or having the knowledge to give out really helpful advice like Stef did - I'm just glad to have been able to use the skills I have to help in a small way
