Fancy - January 30, 2009

I decided not to wait, and went to the SPCA to adopt another cat. I thought about getting a kitten this time, but I am good with full grown cats. Kittens are cute, but they grow up to be cats anyway, and cats have "personality". There were only a couple of kittens there, and they were already spoken for. And so many cats that need homes. I picked a beauty. A 2 year old, all black female, long haired named Fancy. She is a real sweetheart, who had been tossed out & abandoned by her previous owner and brought to the shelter by a neighbor who felt sorry for her. I know these things often happen when people separate, particularly in domestic violence situations - but I can not imagine why anyone would have abandoned this sweet kitty. She has already adjusted to her new home.

Brandy is gone

I knew she was suffering and I had to make the decision. 18 years is a long life for a cat. She has now crossed the Rainbow bridge. Good bye Brandy.
