How I met my adopted cat:

I volunteer at AniMeals, a no-kill shelter. I went in to pet her many times. She always gave me this look in her eyes. After a month I adopted her. The people who dropped her off several months earlier were feeding her rabbit pellets and keeping her in a small area.

Jasper looks just like my cat, Bigfoot. He was left behind to fend for himself when his owners moved. He would sneek into the nursery where my husband worked to find food. The owners wanted to send him to the shelter, but my husband called me and asked if it would be ok to bring him home. There he stayed for the next 16 years. He was the best cat we could have ever asked for. They don't call Maine Coons gentle giants for no reason. Sadly, he died at age 17. We miss him still.

I take care of a feral colony, and I was trying to trap a trio of kittens and their mama. One morning I caught a little orange male kitten, and he did something no colony cat has done before or since: he sat down in the trap, looked me in the eye, and started to purr. He walked from the trap to the carrier and curled up inside. He could not have been more pleased to have been caught! When I took him to the vet, he was quite scared but he did not hiss or get frantic--he just snuggled into me and hid his little face. "He's definitely decided you're his mama," said the vet tech with a smile. Well, needless to say, this golden-eyed, sweet boy did not return to the colony--he stayed with me, and his name is Buster. He is six years old now and he is my treasured little buddy.
