Arrival Story: When my beloved Albert went to the Rainbow Bridge on May 2, 2002, I was devastated and lost. I burned a candle on his grave for 17 days - one day for each year of his life - and on the 17th day, my hubby came home from work at lunchtime with a tiny kitten which fit in the palm of his hand. This little kitten still had his baby blue eyes. He was so young, he shouldn't have been away from his mother, as he had not yet been weaned. We were going to Virginia and before we left, we had our housecall vet come and check him out. She said he was about 3 weeks old, give or take. We like to think he was exactly 17 days old and that he was the reincarnation of Albert - thus, his name, Albie. We had to hand feed him for the next week and it was so difficult to get food into him. Many times during our visit to Virginia, we thought we might lose him, and were on the phone long distance with the vet almost every day. We drove 60 miles one way to find cat milk and a nursing bottle and one day, he just turned around and started licking baby food from my finger. Since then, we haven't been able to get him to STOP eating. I carried him around in my blouse and at night he slept cuddled up on my neck, covered by my hair.
Bio: To this very day, Albie thinks I'm his real cat-mommy and he will suckle on my face. I don't have the heart to refuse him, even though he weighs a ton and I get teased mercilessly by my family for allowing such behavior.

The Last Forum I Posted In: Wedding of Tessie and Albie - Saturday November 8
My beautiful fiance, Tessie, got hit with a were-cat virus during the full moon --- I'm a bit confoooooosed as to the details --- and she was turned into a PIG!! Her brofur, Tucker, was turned into a chicken! when she sneezed on him.
Despite my legendary prowess as Hairy Pawter (for Halloween), I was unable to help her. The good news is that she is back to normal and her gorgeous self again. Whew! what a relief!!
Today I sent my beautiful Tessie an engagement collar and asked her to be my fiance and she said YES. I'm the happiest cat in West Virginia --- maybe even the entire United States! --- today. Mom wishes she knew how to put the picture of the collar somewhere in my diary, but alas...she's not THAT computer savvy!
I read in Tessie's diary that she caught the flowers at TC and Cagney's wedding. We'll have to see if that comes true........ Of course, it will SOMEday! There's no other cat for me --- that's furrrrrrr sure.
The rules: Each player starts with seven random facts about themselves. Cats who are tagged need to write on their own blog about the seven things and the rules. You need to choose seven cats to tag and list their names. Don’t forget to leave them a comment that they have been tagged and to read your blog.
1. It's quite possible --- even probable (if you're inclined to believe that way) --- that I am the reincarnation of my Rainbow Bridge brother, Albert. The vet thinks I may have been born on May 2, 2002, the day my brother died and went to the Bridge. I was found in an almost miraculous way.
2. My Mom thinks I have the MOST beautiful face she has ever seen.
3. I love my Daddy and cat brother, Mr. Silk, best --- even though Mommy loves me so much it hurts.
4. I have the most expressive face and Mom thinks I can almost talk.
5. My brother, Mr. Silk and I, won a photo contest at InsideLongmont.
6. I love to suckle on my Mom's face.
7. Daddy calls me "Braveheart" because I'm such a big baby....and afraid of quite a few things, even though I have never had a traumatic moment in my life.
