It's amazing how a cat brought all of us together in a time that's so divisive. Thanks for that, Paddles. May we remember that lesson. @FirstCatofNZ #Prrpforever

@FirstCatofNZ Paddles, sad to hear of her passing, in a weird way, she made you feel good, she said "I believe in you" to me once, and I actually felt better, Thanks Paddles you made your mark alright, Thank you @jacindaardern for sharing her with us.

You know it! Though the cat door probably swings both ways tbh. 😽 teapaw.org/3L_lama/status/9251502…
Paddles, I’ve noticed you’re a bit of a flirt! You certainly don’t twiddle your thumbs when there’s a handsome Tom around.

Hi Paddles. Yes that did work! And no hard feelings about using #MX in your tray, it's not a good newspaper anyway. Sincerely, a Danish fan
