Arrival Story: Once again, we were working at a customer's house, and noticed two little black kittens playing in the shrubs. We asked if they were his, and he said that they just showed up a few days ago, and he hoped we would take them because he was not feeding them and they had already narrowly escaped being run over by his wife's car. We were not in a position to take in any more cats, so we discussed which shelter to take them to. The only unlucky thing about a black cat is that no one wants to adopt them. I was at the truck when I heard the wife starting to back out of the driveway. I couldn't see the kittens anywhere. As she backed into the street, PLOP!, out fell one kitten into the middle of the road. They were on the rear axle! I held my breath and watched as she drove over the top of the kitten, thankfully missing her. The kitten ran crying across the street and hid in the bushes. I waited and watched for the second one to fall, but never saw it. We searched, but could never find the second kitten. Her life had changed in an instant, she was truely all alone now. I guess this one was meant for us after all.
Bio: After a clean bill of health from the vet's, except for being underweight (her ribs were showing) , and some flea medicine, she came home with us. We introduced her to our gang, and she moved in and acted like she'd always been here. There was the usual hissing and protests from the other cats, but she wasn't buying it! We set her up with a shallow little litter pan because we use a top entry box (Clevercat brand) that we thought would be too high for her to reach. She took one look at the little pan, one look at the big pan and said, "I'm a big girl, I don't need a baby pan!", climbed up and into the box, did her business, and jumped right back out. She climbs our tall bed like Mount Everest! Nothing phases her, she has quite a personality!

*Kate fishes her paw under the bed*
I know it's around here somewhere...
Ah, there it is.*she pulls out her dusty diary*
I never write in this thing, but I really think I should.
Especially after so many cats were so nice to me on my fourth birthday, yesterday.
Wally sent me a party hat, with a kimi picture inside. Thanks Wally!
I put the picture on my page, and mom made me some wallpaper to go with it.
Mathis der Meowler, and his family, gave me my very first emerald. He said I would look stunning in green. I think I agree! *blush*
Emily Felicity and her brother Edgar, sent me a party hat too, and so did our new friend, Tabi-Chan. You can't have too many of those on your birthday! Thanks E & E, and TC!
Samoa's family sent me an Easter egg, with the cutest Hello Kitty cake with four candles! *licks icing off her whiskers* purrrr
My "brother-in-love", Loki, and his family, sent tulips. They are beautiful Loki! purrrr.
Hannah's friend, Pepper, a darling Texas kitty, sent a lovely rose, with birthday wishes.
Sweet Sky, another fellow Texan, also wrote me a nice pmail to say happy birthday.
And Moses, the special guy cat in my life, wrote me a letter. I told him not to send me anything. He is saving his zealies for Zack...so he can give him wings. I hope that isn't too soon. Thanks handsome Moses.
~Thanks to all of you who made my birthday a very special day for me~
Kisses from a grateful Katie Kat
P.S. I just got another bouquet of tulips from my pretty friend, Tilly!
Thanks Tilly! ~Happy Easter to you, and all my Catster friends~
So how do I look?
It has been so long since I have written, but tonight I thought I would dust off my Diary and tell you what I learned today! I am all dolled up for the BCCP's first "Smooch-a-thon". I even have a new "stage name ' for it ! My friend, Dr. Francis A. Sinatracat, said that it is a famous name, and comes from a great movie. And the movie "Kiss Me Kate", is made from an even greater book, "The Taming of the Shrew".
So what is a "shrew"? Dad said, "Ask Google". So I did, and it turns out a shrew is a little mammal, kind of like a mouse, or a mole! Cool! Can I chase it?
I guess it's okay for my name to be about that!
Oh, and one more thing...I wanted to say thank you to two special cats...
first to Ashley Jay, for making my "Smooch" picture. Thanks girlfriend!
And second to my Guardian Angel, Black Jack, for putting my badge on his page! He is a swell guy!
Today, I turned Two! I really am a big girl now, even though I am still tiny. My brother Stinky and I look so much alike, but he is twice my size. He loves me though, and is never rough with me.
I had the best birthday! It started out with many birthday wishes from friends. I also received several wonderful rosettes.
When mom and dad came home, they brought turkey! Real roasted turkey, not cat food!!! They made sandwiches for their dinner, since it was so late, and we, especially me...got lots of little pieces cut up for us. Mom says it's like feeding pidgons!
They also brought me a new toy! It's two little plastic balls, that open up for catnip to be put inside! There are tiny holes so I can smell it! Ummm, Catnip for dessert!
What a grrrreat day. I wish I could do it all over tomorrow.
Kisses from Kate
