Arrival Story: Mama came to the Animal Refuge League on June 27, 1997 to adopt me. I looked at her with my big eyes and I knew I had her wrapped around my paws. Just in case she had any doubt, I melted into her arms when she picked me up. She was my angel to come and rescue me, but now I've turned her into my maid!
Bio: I love to sit in the windows and watch the traffic and customers to the knitting shop below us walk by. I'm the queen of the neighborhood, as the ladies all ooow and ahhh over me.
On June 22, 2007, the v*t told Mama that I have a hyperactive thyroid. Mama was upset thinking it was cancer, but she is so happy its not! I'm thinking I like this because I'm getting a LOT more attention over it, and my medicine makes a fantastic salmon garnish to my kibble!

Alum & proud supporter:
Mama loves me so much, and she took the time to tell the world in "My Tail of Devotion".
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I was chosen to help promote shelter adoptions for the Hill's Science Diet Save 1 Million Lives/Second Chance program & its 2007 campaign. Mama's so proud of me. I'm famous! Please come see! (I'm the 1st cat story halfway down the page under the banner "more adoption stories")
I don't know who Twitter is, but maybe he's related to Tweety? Even so, Mama's got it, and sometimes she says stuff about me. So there. Mama says that if you add her, let her know who you are; she's nosey! MOL
Today is Sebastian's 1oth birthday. I can't believe its been that long since my life has been disturbed! He came to live with us when he was 8 weeks old, and life just hasn't been as quiet and sane since!
He's good for some things, though, like the non-diet supper food we got to eat - succulent wet pouch food from Pounce with a dollop of vanilla ice cream on top. Oh it tasted so moreish!
Mama just about got buried in her paw mail with all the notes that cats sent Sab birthday greetings so she almost missed the paw mail from Catster that talks about the new Catster brower add-on for FireFox. Of course I don't totally understand what all of that means, but I told Mama to put it on our computer right away! Like a good mama, she did, but she said "its too big" for our computer screen and she took it off. Says its also too busy for her eyes to pay attention to anything else but the cats. I liked it though. I'll have to figure out how to put it back when Mama's not looking!
Mama tells me that a lady called the shelter today asking questions about Shortie. Do I dare to hope that maybe Shortie could get a new home soon? Oh that would be pawsome!
Oh this morning was just wonderful; I didn't want it to ever end. I climbed back into bed before Mama did this morning (after she got up to feed us and read the newspaper, that is) so she picked me up.
Instead of moving me out of the way, like she usually does, this time she held me and rubbed my chin and behind my ears and kissed me and just loved one me. It was so wonderful; its been such a crazy week around here!
It all started last Monday night, when Mama went to say hello to new hamster sister Reese and was horrified to find out that Reese had lost one of her back paws during the day! Mama has no idea how it happened; I don't remember hearing Reese in distress, but sure enough, one of her back paws was gone and in its place was a swollen leg with dried blood on it.
Mama panicked and washed it off before she called one of the bunny people at the shelter who is a vet helper purson. They talked and then Mama gave Reese some pain medicine.
But on Tuesday Reese's leg got very, very big, so on Wednesday Mama took her to see Dr. Shawn, who gave her more medicine to take but said that her leg looked good. Mama hasn't found the paw yet, but Reese is taking her medicine (not happily, so I hear) and the swelling and healing is going well, Mama says.
Then on Thursday, Mama took Monet, our 3-colored guinea pig, to the vet. I was worried something was wrong with him, but Mama said it was just his well piggie visit. He checked out just fine so that made Mama so happy!
Poor Mama's been having such allergy problems and she's had a hard time seeing and reading and smelling things so she's been taking pills and sleeping. She was so messed up that she ended up giving Reese way too much medicine and gave her 14 days worth of antibiotic medicine in 5 days. Mama couldn't figure out why she ran out of medicine so quick and complained to the girls at Dr. Shawn's office. That's when they told her what happened and then Mama felt so silly.
So, since "Dr. Sab" has not taken his responsibilities to heart, I have stuck to Mama like glue, as she says, and I've been a very good nurse. Mama's head and nose won't bother her if I sit on her head! That's my plan!
Oh my catness Mama brought home another bunny named Ringo. Mama and the shelter staff have had a long time to get to know Ringo but he's been at the shelter for almost a year a year! so I don't blame Mama for wanting to get him out of there.
But the deal is that Shortie is getting worse in the behavior department (I will spare you the details of when she RAMMED ME) and talked it over with the girls. They are hoping that Shortie needs a buddy and that Ringo is the guy! Mama tells me that she wrote up the new bio so someone would come and love Ringo, so maybe Shortie has been waiting for Ringo!
Anyway, I must agree with Mama; Ringo is very cat like. He's also very bunny and hops and zips all over the place. He's actually amusing to me: he keeps Shortie in her place!
I've got some more bunny watching to do so off I go...
