It is official. Oingo and I are pawrents!
Of course it was with much sadness that our precious little Eve had to leave earth and fly to The Rainbow Bridge. She was going to be adopted and become part of Oingo's earthly family but she was so sick and just too weak. A lot of you already know the story about Eve and her unhappy and unfortunate beginning on earth. But that was all about to change and she was finally experiencing real love and on her way to her furever home. She was so loved by so many earth familes and so many did all that they could to help Eve to survive and to have a happy life but unfortunately, it was not to be.
And so it was that she made her trip to The Rainbow Bridge and into our arms. Of course, Oingo and I have been here at the Bridge for awhile now and we have been so happy here with each other. We just never dreamed that we would actually have a little one in our lives and I cannot tell you how happy we are now that she is here with us.
I asked Oingo and his Mommy if they thought that we could adopt little Eve since we were already family and she needed someone to care for her. There were so many wonderful angels who were so sweet to little Eve and who wanted desperately to make her journey as easy as possible. But our hearts were aching to welcome her into our home. It just seemed like the right thing to do and she really deserves to be with family.
My wonderful sisfur-in-law, Tabby, and Boingo (Oingo's twin brother) were wanting to love and care for little Eve also. That lucky little kit just doesn't know how truly loved she is. But after some contemplation and discussion, it was decided that Oingo and I would adopt little Eve as our very own daughter. And Tabby and Boingo have so graciously accepted to be Eve's godpawrents. So it is with much joy and happiness that we are announcing that we are finally pawrents! I cannot express how truly happy and excited we are.
Little Eve has made our lives complete and filled a void place that we didn't even realize was there. I just never knew how a little one could fully envelope one's heart and completely take over our entire lives. She has made us both so happy and fulfilled.
We have invited Tabby and Boingo to come to our home this evening for a special dinner to celebrate. Of course they will be bringing their kits along too and little Eve is just ecstatic to be meeting her five little cousins. It will be a joyous time, indeed.
Of course I had to invite my heavenly sibs, Sammy and Smokey to join us in our celebration along with their lovely wives, Clawdia and Fire. And of course, my best friend in the whole heavens, Blossom and her friend, Prissy will be joining us also. Everyone is so truly excited to meet Eve and to welcome her.
We most certainly want to thank all of the angels who have gathered around little Eve in a circle of love and who have helped to make her feel welcome and at home here at The Bridge. It truly made her crossing much easier to feel the love and strength that everyone was sending to her.
Of course, we want to thank all of the earthly angels who did their utmost to help Eve to regain her strength and to be able to live a normal kitty life. So many families and their fur babies were hoping and praying for Eve and doing everything possible to give her a chance to live a happy life with a loving forever family. It is unbelieveable the love and efforts that these very special humans poured forth to help Eve. It is also quite humbling to know that so many humans have such kind and giving hearts. Thank you all for everything that you did in your efforts to give Eve a new beginning.
Just yesterday, I was busy redecorating a little nursery for Eve and Oingo was busy making her a new little kitty doll house to play with. She absolutely loves her new room and her new toys. She quickly fell asleep for her nap this afternoon after a busy day of exploring her new home and playing with her new toys. What a precious, sweet little angel she is. Can you tell that I am a furry purrroud Meowmy?
I just keep pinching myself to see if this is all really happening. Yesterday, we were preparing for our daughter's arrival and today she is actually here with us, forever and always!
Well, I see that it is nearing the dinner hour and our guests will be arriving soon. I must finish up a few last minute details and wake up our sleeping angel so that she can meet and greet the rest of our family and friends.
This is the absolute most wonderful New Year of all. Oingo and I share so much love together and now we share our new little angel; our sweet little daughter, Eve. We are truly, truly blessed and so delighted to finally be pawrents.
And as all new pawrents do, we are proudly showing everyone little Eve's pictures. She has her very own page that was made by Oingo and Boingo's Mommy. It is a beautiful tribute and memory to her short life on earth. You can see her page by typing in her catster id # 1086369. There is a wonderful picture of Eve with her auntie Jody, who so lovingly and thoughtfully gave Eve the chance to put her little feet in some real green grass. How good that must have felt to Eve. We are so happy that she got to have that experience. Thank you Jody and bless you.
Of course, you can also see her pictures on my page too. And somehow, I have a suspicion that her proud Daddy, Oingo will be showing off some of her pictures on his page also. Well, you know how new pawrents are! *Giggles*

Well, as you can imagine I was truly surprised and deeply honored to have been chosen as Cat Of The Day on Saturday,December 19th. I want to apologize for not getting my thank yous out right away but Meowmy has been having problems with her back and can't sit for very long at the catputer without getting up and doing something else for awhile. So we are going to make a stab at it today and will hopefully get all caught up.
First off, I received a very nice pawmail from Dog (who is a beautfiul orange and white kitty). Isn't that a unique name for a kitty? We also have a doggie friend whose name is Kitty. MOL

I would love to mention each and every message but Meowmy says that she just cannot sit that long. Please know that I read and enjoyed each and every message and I am truly pleased and honored to have such wonderful, sweet friends who have been so kind and generous to me and helped to celebrate my big honor. I am still shaking my head and finding it hard to believe that I was actually Cat Of The Day! Oh my goodness! What a wonderful honor. Listed below are the prezzies and gifts that was on my page yesterday. I will cherish them all forever.

Thank you all ever so much. I cannot tell you how much your friendship and kindness mean to me and my Meowmy. We never would have even been on Catster or have made so many special friends if so many of you hadn't reached out to my Meowmy when I first came to live at The Rainbow Bridge. And of course, I never would have received this very special and humbling honor if all of those things had not happened.
We love you all and simply could not imagine our lives without all of you being right there with us. And thank you Catster Headquarters for honoring me and choosing me for such a very special award. We love you too! Catster rocks!!
Hugs, purrs and whisker rubs,
Hazel
