indoors Arrival Story: My husband and I are currently stationed in Stuttgart Germany. Wen we both settled in we really wanted a cat in our lives and went to the military classifieds to find our love. We found her about a week after we started looking and made our way to pay her a visit. It was love at first sight! She was living with another military family that had just had a new baby and unfortunately they had to get rid of her. We gladly took Hazel to our home it's been wonderful ever since! She had a tough year and a half before we met her though so she was very timid and shy. When she was a kitten she was found in a box in a park in Texas with her brothers and sisters that was quickly filling with rain. She was rescued and adopted out. Latet she transferred to Germany with her last family to Germany. During the plane ride over to Germany her cage was surrounded by cages that contained dogs because they thought it would be funny. So with all of her traumatic events and changes you would think she would be mean or continue to be shy. However, she has become so loving and wonderful. She is just what we needed!! She is now in a caring and loving home with us with cat parents that are willing to give her te world!!!

Well let me just start off by telling you I am not very happy with my mommy! She got a new job and is really loving it but you know what jobs mean right? No mommy at home! She only works part time thank the kitty gods but I sure do like having her home all day so when I need anything she is there to take care of me! She is very good about getting up early to clean our boxes and put out our breakfast and when she gets home she gives us tons of love and then later dinner but this has been a new change for me and Farrah. Mommy feels terrible but we know when she goes to work she gets more money for our treats! Mol! Well Farrah and I are starting to get a long better now. We were always fighting this past month or so and mommy was getting a bit concerned. Farrah was such a bully to me. She was dominating all of the water dishes and all three of the litter boxes! Unfortunetly I had to ruin a few rugs because I had no where else to go! Mommy and Daddy did not get angry with me. They made sure I had a litter box that could be monitored by them so I would not be bullied away and I have not had any issues since! The same with our water dishes! I have stood up for my self a few times which has helped with Farrah's aggression towards me. We still have our momments but we are starting to play together again and at night we are willing to sleep in the same bed together with Mommy and Daddy. Farrah sometimes growls at me in the middle of the night but when mommy pets her and tells her to be nice she calms down. Farrah is such an attention bug! I am just happy she is being nicer to me now. I was very stressed out! Hmmm what else is going on...Oh I don;t know if you have read Zack, Zoey, or Rock Ann's diaries but mom has set our geocaches and travel bugs where we live in honor of our best friends from California. Here is a link that explains what geocaching is just in case you don't know what I am talking about! Mommy says it is super fun and there are some geocaches out there that she named after us too! http://www.geocaching.com/guide/default.aspx
Well mommy says she needs to get back to her homework and I need to start getting ready for bed! Have a pawsome week everyone!
How exciting! Mom just loves getting those emails from Catster that says the whole site gets to see our diaries! She wants to show us off to everyone so when we get chosen she hopes other people that we aren't friends see our diaries. Today was a good and bad day for Farrah and I. It was good because I stood up for my self. Farrah was pinning me down and forcefully grooming me like she does! Well I flipped that girl around and let her know I was not a happy camper! It was enough to make her stop with out hurting her ofcourse because I am not a fighter. I am a lover. Mom says I am the pacifist! Farrah hisses and swats at me whenever she can but I almost never retaliate. I just wanted to let her know she cant always push me around. However, a few hours later Farrah was growling and hissing at me again. That is the bad. Mom thought I had solved the issues we were having but it looks like we are back to square one. She knows our issues will wont get solved over night but it still makes her sad we dont cuddle and do cute stuff together again. Maybe once all of Farrahs hormones are out of her system she will be a little nicer to me. Mostly mom hates seeing that sad look in my face when Farrah is being mean. She says I look defeated.Mom and Dad try their best to let me know that I am still super special and loved. Hmm time will tell! How was eveyones weekends? Luv Hazel B.
Happy morning to everyone! I know it is a happy morning for us. Farrah, mommy, daddy, and I all slept in bed together all through the night. Farrah slept on moms back like she always does now and I slept between Dad's legs. He moves a lot during the night but I stayed anyway and just adjusted myself with him. Mommy was so happy to see me when she woke up this morning! It is a bit funny that mom spent all the time to make a domaine downstairs just for me and now I feel comortable enough to come upstairs. Oh well I know she just wants me happy. Well time to get me fresh air and sunshine! Luv Hazel B.
