Good ol' Iams. She always tries to get in on MacReady's dog food leftovers too!

Skills:
She's *very* talkative. She can also sense when I'm sick. She checks up on me when I'm ill...I think she's a bit more empathic than the others.

Arrival Story:
I worked as Assistant Office Manager at a veternarian, and one of our clients called because they found a tiny (almost dead) black kitten under their porch. Her other siblings were totally dead - turns out her feral mother had either abandoned them, or been killed. We talked the client through her care, and before we knew it she'd survived to be a few months old. She was bottle-fed, and when strong enough, brought to us for adoption (the client already had too many of their own pets to keep her permanently). She was so breathtakingly beautiful, and so incredibly sweet. It only took two days before I decided she *had* to come home with me. I also got her to be a playmate for my other kitten at the time, BeeBee. They were only a few months apart in age.

Bio:
She was one of my first kittens when I lived on my own, and has been with me through some of the best and worst times in my young adult years, loyal to me no matter where we had to move. She's a great little listener, and so clingy. -Having to be bottle fed as a baby, she really acts like a little human sometimes. She's also a kisser - she licks me really gently, and only for kisses, not for "suckles" or "cleaning." She loves me so much, and she has such deep abandonment issues. Whenever we go out of town, once we're home, she literally clings to me for hours, her paws around my neck like a child. She's so sensitive and so very special. Sprite is my heart.
