I don't know if this is the right thing to do, and I'm so sorry if not.

catthiefkeith passed away today.

I know there are mumsnetters who know her know how amazing she is, and I just wanted to raise a glass to her memory on here, where she brought a smile to so many faces with her stories of her mad life.

Rest in peace lovely lady.

I'm actually shocked. I'm another person who always recognised the name and the style of posting.

Rest in Peace you wonderful person. You certainly made me smile on many occasions when I didn't think I was capable. Thank you Cat x Flowers

BamburyFuriou3 · 18/08/2017 20:46

If I saw she had posted I always read it as I knew it would make me smile.

Such a loss. Her poor family xx

God, this is a shock. Sad

RIP. Thoughts are with her family.

ClopySow · 18/08/2017 20:45

Gosh, i'm shedding a little tear.

It's easy to forget that we're all real people with real families and real lives on the other side of the screen.

So very, very sad for her family and friends.

Flowers I'm in shock condolences to her family

mejon · 18/08/2017 20:44

Oh my goodness me. What awful news. Her posts were always so entertaining. Condolences to her DH, DD, family and friends.

GeekLove · 18/08/2017 20:44

Damn. I'm sorry to hear this. So sudden. I remember her trapped on a crappy holiday in Tunisia on a hotel balcony with only a scabby wild cat for company. My condolences to her husband and children - this must be such a shock.

Raising a [glass] to Cat

mineofuselessinformation · 18/08/2017 20:44

I never knew her in RL, or even interacted with her much on MN, but I 'knew' her here - one of the true characters.
That's so sad. Sad
I can't even bring myself to say RIP, because she was far too young to go.
My utmost sympathy to her family and friends. Xxx

Rafflesway · 18/08/2017 20:43

Good God! I am just totally lost for words!

What a horrendous thing to happen to such a lovely family. So unfair!

just cannot believe what I am reading! RIP Keith - a well loved fellow Mnetter. Flowers

lucysmam · 18/08/2017 20:43

Rest in Peace CTK, you'll be missed Sad

TooExtraImmatureCheddar · 18/08/2017 20:43

Oh no, I'm really saddened to hear this!

Veterinari · 18/08/2017 20:43

I'm so sorry Slithy
Utterly shocked. Keith was always such a warm, fun poster - her stories of her dickhead boss, lovely dog and bonkers neighbours were always so genuine and amusing.

Her poor poor family Flowers

Josiah · 18/08/2017 20:42

We didn't always see eye to eye but she had a terrific sense of humour and from her posts you could build up quite a picture of her and her life in her village. I think she will be missed by a whole community as well as her loved ones.

Do you remember when she made the newspapers when she was drink and woke up in th morning to find she'd video on some Japanese ornate eggs but couldn't remember?

It was hilarious.

Must of been a terrible shock for her loved ones.

Meningitis is such a cruel infection when it strikes.

RIP catthiefkeith.

DudeHatesHisCarryOut · 18/08/2017 20:42

I sent a FB message to WoolyHugs as soon as I read her DH's announcement. Hope that was ok.

Bubblysqueak · 18/08/2017 20:42

Such sad sad news Flowers condolences to get family.

nothruroad · 18/08/2017 20:42

So sad to hear this. CTK made me laugh and made the world a brighter place.

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 18/08/2017 20:41

This is extremely sad news; she was such a prolific poster and was so full of life.

I'm very sorry to hear this Flowers
