Arrival Story: Well, it all started when someone abandoned his mother, Peachy at my front door. She adopted me instantly! She would scratch on my screen at night and cry to get inside. Well, I had Bo, my 12 yo cat, but I had decided that when I moved, I would take her with me. Well, before that happened, I was going to get her fixed and fully vetted. Well, needless to say, I was too late. This is the neatest part of the story. When her water broke, I was there, she came crying to me and I rubbed her belly as she was in labor. I had a nice box with lots of soft cushy items for her to have her babies. But instead she was determined to have them on the ledge of a steep rock, behind some very large bushes with lots of big thorns. Well that night, it came a huge storm, with lots of big lightening. I was scared to go out, but knew something had to be done. All at once, at about 2 AM, I heard a very loud scream (yep Marino!) coming from the bushes and Peachy come running to me, as if to say, "I need your help". WEll I suited up and prepared to get struck by lightening. I knew I had to dive into the bush and I knew I had one chance to get these babies. I dove, and came out with three of the smallest, cutest, wettest, babies I have ever seen. After rescuing all of them, I couldn't part with them. So, I started out with one cat and ended up with 5. Now with the adoption of Murphy, we have the kitty cat Brady Bunch.

#10-Thou shalt not speak the word "NO" regardless of what it pertains too...I am King and shalt not be refused anything...
Marino could't live without his brothers, Peyton & Sweetie. They have never spent a day apart, since Aug. 15th, 2003. HE also loves his momma very much. Hard to believe, looking at him that he was the runt of this litter. He has sure made up for lost time.
Lives Remaining: 8 of 9

This is Peyton again, writing for Marino. He is still in the hospital...his urinalysis came in late this afternoon and he has crystals in his urine. Cotton came home today and boy is he happy....please keep praying for Marino, the vet has no idea when he will get to come home and mom is feeling bad for not getting him to the vet earlier. She didn't know who was peeing in the floor so she didn't know it was Marino b/c he didn't act sick. Our mommy is missing him and feeling really bad.
Marino says to tell everyone thanks for all of his rosettes and prayers...it's making him feel better and mommy too.
This is Peyton and I am writing this diary for my brother Marino or Roo as our mom calls him....we are all very worried about our brother as mom left with him this morning and he didnt come back. I over heard my mommy telling my granny that Marino is very, very sick and the vet don't know why...his fever is very high and he has diarrhea...mommy was crying while she was talking to our granny and asking her to pray. Mommy was up all night last night with Marino and Cotton(he is in the hospital too!) Mom said she has no idea how she will sleep tonight without Marino beside her and Cotton in her arms. We brothers have never been away from our mom and we know Marino must be scared stiff there all alone.....Please pray for our Marino and our Cotton too....Pray for mommy too b/c I heard her tell granny that she would go nuts if anything happens to Marino..
