Happy Gotcha Day


Today is a special day.
5 years ago this special little ball of fluff was introduced into my life.
My life has not been the same.
The moment I laid eyes on her it was utter love.
Now for her part, I can only say it took more than one moment for that feeling to be reciprocated.
She made me earn her love and loyal. Yes sireebob, she did.
It was trial by fire and tooth.
Abby has been shuttled to at least 3 homes that I know of. But, I understand her allure. She is small and adorable.
But she is fiesty and has catitude.
If you do take her on her terms -- forgetaboutit!!!!
So, those who do not wish to accept her terms parted ways.
Thankfully.
Because June 12, 2005 brought her to me.
It was my lucky day.
It was her lucky day.
Although, she would have argued that point on that day, I think.
She has found her forever and ever home.
So today we celebrate 5 years together.
The best is yet to come.
Thank you Abby, Happy Homecoming, my sweet.
Love you,
Momma

  2. Happy Gotcha Day, Abby! We're so glad you finally found your wonderful forever home. :-)

    All cats have to be taken on their own terms. If someone is not prepared for that, they ought not to be adopting a cat, in our opinion. They could adopt a dog...or heck, just buy a stuffed animal. All Beings deserve to be accepted for who they are!!!

  17. Abby Happy Gotcha Day sweet girl...so now the answer is out...that lovely glow I always see around you is the love light shining from you to your sweet mama who took you in 5 years ago and love you in spite of everything.
    No more precious love than that earned from a cat who has been shuffled about like you.
    Hugs Madi and Mom
