Arrival Story: My ex found a stray tabby, Studio Cat, that turned out to be pregnant. Studio Cat had kittens. My ex gave all of the kittens away, except for one. Her name was Studio Kitten. Studio Cat and Kitten lived happily together, until one day, Studio Cat just up and left. My ex was left with Studio Kitten. Studio Kitten then became pregnant, had a litter, and took off. All of the kittens were given away, with the exception of one. That one was Shep. Upon meeting my ex, and Shep, it was decided that Shep would be neutered. Prior to the neutering, Shep would run outside during my visits, chase butterflies, and spray my car tires! Once he was neutered, he became an indoor kitty. After my ex and I broke up, he was nice enough to let me have custody of The Shep...and I've been blessed with him ever since!
Bio: Sheppy was diagnosed with cancer in June of 2007. He has had 4 surgeries, spent countless nights at the hospital, been poked, prodded, and is now going on his final round of chemotherapy. He has finally hit the 'clinical remission' mark, and will only be going in for check-ups!!!! After all that he has been through, after every painful surgery, lung-tapping, ultrasound, etc., he does nothing but purr every time a Dr. or tech picks him up. He truly is the sweetest boy.
