Oh furiends, I have a happy story for you! One year ago today, I was in a cage outside, next to lots of other cages with kitties. I was in the last cage on the top row. Lots of people came and went and some even talked to me! I don't know why I wasn't under my blanket, except it was such a nice day. Then a nice man stopped to talk to me. He spoke softly and let me sniff his fingers. Since he was so nice, I licked them. Well, he seemed to like that and started to give me chin skritches. Oh, this was a man who tasted good, talked softly and gave good chin skritches (right there, yes that's the spot)! So I started purring.
Well, the rest, as they say, is history! That man and his family took me home and put me in the bathroom. There was a boy kitty who told me it was his house, then wanted to know all about me. Of course, that's Victor and we've become great friends, groommates and playmates. I cautiously explored the house one room at a time and spent a lot of time in small spaces where I could watch and listen without being bothered. Of course, I also spent a lot of time getting to know my people and Victor.
Now, I couldn't be happier! We eat good food, watch birds and squirrels out the windows, play a lot, and sleep on the big bed with Mom and Dad at night. Victor can be annoying, but we rarely fight. And I know all the best hidey holes for when I want some deep, uninterrupted sleep. Oh, and of course, I have an amazing worldwide network of furiends through this blog and the
Cat Blogosphere!
As you may remember, I got my birthday wish for a forever home. My Gotchaversary wish, if I may, is for many, many more kitties to find their forever homes! Just thinking of that makes me purr, purr, purr.
Living happily ever after, Nina!
