How We Met

I'M FREE! I'M FREE! Mommy let Yum Yum and me out of the bathroom a week ago. We are having a great time playing with each other and Spirit and Benny. We still have to take our Feline Herpes medicine for the rest of our lives. Mommy says that's not so bad; at least we survived. ~~~PLEASE PRAY FOR ME. I HAVE A VERY BAD CASE OF FELINE HERPES. MOMMY IS TRYING HER BEST TO SAVE ME. I HAVE BEEN TO THE VET FIVE TIMES IN FOUR WEEKS. I HAVE TROUBLE BREATHING AND EATING, BECAUSE I COUGH AND SNEEZE SO MUCH. THAT SHELTER I CAME FROM DIDN'T CARE VERY MUCH IF THE ANIMALS WERE WELL OR NOT. MOMMY PICKED YUM YUM AND ME BECAUSE SHE WAS AFRAID THEY WOULD PUT US TO SLEEP.

I took a friend to the shelter to adopt a Boston Terrier. I had wanted a Siamese since I was in high school and a mean person poisoned my Siamese, Mr. Solo. While my friend looked at the dogs, I looked at the cats.~~~~~Oh, I could hear Mommy telling all the cats and kittens how pretty they all were. A little orange kitty almost had Mommy convinced to take him. He kept sticking his paw through the cage and tapping Mommy on the arm. He was even doing tricks. Thank goodness Mommy then stopped at my cage. "Oh!" Mommy said, "There you are waiting for me!" I was with another little Siamese who was born without a tail. Mommy decided to bring us both home with her. Mommy is very soft hearted and she was afraid that nobody would want Yum Yum because she was so tiny and born without a tail. The shelter people said we were sisters, but Mommy had her doubts about that. I weigh two pounds and am almost four months old, and my sister, Yum Yum, is also about four months old, but barely weighs a pound. The vet confirmed our ages today when Mommy took us to be checked out. We both have worms and ear mites. Benny, our Doxie brother, loves us and wants to play, but our vet said to keep him separate until we are better. Mommy's big cat, Spirit, is afraid of us.~~~MOL!
