Arrival Story: If you work at a shoe store you own a lot of shoes. If you work at an ice cream store YOU'RE the Chunky Monkey. I work at a Cat Clinic, therefore, if a cat is returned to our clinic, it seems to end up at home with me! Sam Lloyd's original mommy couldn't keep him because he kept attacking her & her new baby. He was at the Clinic, facing the Final Solution. He was beautiful & sweet to me & I didn't have a baby so what could it hurt bringing him home with me?? When it became apparent Sam could not play well with others at our house, I returned him to the Clinic, certain that Death was the only option. The Clinic doctor convinced me to try moving him to a secure home outside on his own. Long story short -- Sam Lloyd now has his own 10 x 10 foot house, complete with corduroy chair. He can leave his house by way of an enclosed walkway & enter his own enclosed yard where he has furniture, enclosures, beds & boxes. He seems happy as a solitary kitty. When we are in the big yard we allow him to run free for awhile as long as he doesn't try to jump the fence (learned that the hard way). Sam & his dog brother, Scout Levi, love to run & chase each other. It's not an ideal solution, but he has a good life and we love him very much.
**UPDATE** Sam Lloyd moved into the house in Nov 2006. He has adjusted well and we are loving having him inside where we can share a wonderful family life with him. His brothers are not too sure THEY are happy and his sister routinely hits him on his head. He accepts it all and gives us love.

Bio: October 2008. Sam LLoyd still lives inside with us. He is challenging yet an incredibly sweet cat. He's so grateful for the love he gets. He has the softest fur imaginable and a deep purr. In addition to his psychological problems (he's a Head Case, I tell ya!) he also has a worsening heart murmur. He has "blue" days & difficulty breathing sometimes, yet never slows down. We are going to love him for all his days.

Lives Remaining: 6 of 9

Ok, I furgot to include the rules for TAG in my last diary entry.
the rules are: each kitty who gets tagged must leave a diary entry giving the rules and listing 7 little known facts about themselves. Then they list the 7 kitties they are going to tag, they go tag the kitties & instruct that kitty to visit the diary page & see what's what.
It's really simpler than the way I wrote the rules.
Let's Go Have Fun!

For a kitty who spent alot of time alone and now gets to live inside with the family--that's blessing enough.
But now, I am surrounded by great Catster fur-riends!! And now I've been TAGGED by my pal, Mackenzie. I feel soooo fortunate.
What are 7 things to tell you about myself? I'll try to make it interesting for you.
1) My first mama loved me a whole lot, but I just couldn't get along with her baby, so she allowed me to go live with my now & furever mama.
2) For many many years I had my own house with upholstered chair, my own fenced yard & many many squirrels to watch. I couldn't live wif efurryone else cuz something's wrong in my head and it made me really mean and sometimes I even tried to kill my sister, Cagney. I just couldn't help myself.
3) Mama hasn't told hardly anyone but I have a heart problem and may not get to live with mama for alot longer.
4) I kicked my baby bruvver, Henry K. Derby, out of the hoo-man baby's crib. Now when the hoo-man baby isn't visiting I sleep in the crib. Ha Ha Derby!
5) I love my mama so much. When efurryone else gave up on me and I was about to go to The Bridge cuz of my head problem, mama said NO and she tooked me home and she has loved me beyond all measure since then.
6) One time I was running around the yard with mama and our dog bruvver, Spike. I decided to play a game--I jumped the 6 foot fence in one leap. WOW! That was fun. But then I got lost and mama couldn't find me. I heard her calling and calling me. And I even knew she was crying. But I was so scared I couldn't call back to her. Then where I was got real dark and I was REALLY scared. Luckily the next morning Dad came and got me. He said I'd spent the night in our neighbor's garage. I never did THAT again.
7) I know I'll probably go to The Bridge soon. And I'm sad to leave mama but I'm excited to see my dog bruvver, Spike. And play wif the hoo-man baby, Luke, who went to The Bridge in January. I do hope I get to stay wif mama lots longer though.
Now I'm going to TAG some Catster pals named:
heart Bijou
Calvin
Aloyisus
Haskell
T.C.
Wallingford

I don't usually say too much. And I don't socialize alot. I need to write a diary entry now because I am just TOO EXCITED and just have to share my good news.
Mama told me she has applied to adopt a Squillion for me. She said it was because I'm purr-ty solitary and it would be nice for me to have somefing of my own.
I agree. My bruvver, Oliver Winston Parsons Cat, gets most of the attention cuz he talks lots. With my Squillion I'll have somefing to keep me busy and somefing I can love on when I'm feeling shy.
I've already named my Squillion, but you'll have to wait and find out........
