After Genesis' trial and losing so many kitties in such a short period of time, I decided to take some time off. I started getting sick even before the trial but just couldn't work an illness into my schedule. After it was all over I went in for a checkup. It was bad news. The doctor found several tumors and I had to have a complete hysterectomy. Thank God for morphine.
I've been staying at a friend's house, being pampered and loved on by her 4 cats and German Shepard, until yesterday. I came home. Once I tackled the 2 flights of stair to my apartment I was okay. It's so much nicer to recuperate at home.
My dear friend came to visit me this morning and brought his beloved tortie, Turtle,with him to brighten my day. He adores this little kitty so much!! She has brought out a tender and kind side to him that I had never seen before. And he showed me that side today.
He said that he wanted to give me a gift of love and healing during this difficult time. He said he wanted me to take Turtle into my Life. That he felt that I needed to love and care for another cat. He wanted that cat to be Turtle!!!! I'm still in shock, I can't believe he would give me the cat that he loves so much!!
This is the act of a true friend.
So Im feeling better all ready. There is a reason to fight for my life again. I'm posting a couple of pics of her. Just ignore the dates--I haven't properly set it yet.
