Welcome home, Cheryl!

What did Turtle do when you came home?? I'm sure she was so happy to see her mom!

That must feel fantastic to be out of the hospital and back in your own home.

Turtle was in the window when we pulled up to the house. She was pushing her head against the screen I thought she was going to pop it out AGAIN!! I got out of the car, looked up and started talking to her, but she disappeared.
So I step inside the apartment and gently call her name. No Turtle. I did it again. No Turtle.
OMG!! She doesn't remember me??
Then I see a sweet face peeking around the corner at me. Ah, there she was--WITH HER TOY IN HER MOUTH!!!! And she came right to me, drop the toy at me feet and looked up at me.
I think I created a monster when I taught her how to fetch.
So that's what we've been doing now for an hour. No hot bath, no snuggles, no nap, no breakfast. Just fetch, fetch, fetch....

Your post brought tears to my eyes. Bless that little girl's heart. She is a sweetie. And she's missed playing fetch with you. That's her way of telling you that she's missed you!

What a special, special girl. I think cats aren't given enough credit for what they know, and how they relate to those they love.

That is so so true!!! They've got such a cold reputation from people who don't know them. Aloof, sneaky, anti-social. And a smart cat (Turtle) is compared to a dog!!!!!!!!!! It's so insulting. it makes me wanna HISSSSSSSSS

I don't know you, but I followed your story as soon as I heard about it. I am so happy to hear that you're back at home, and your sweet Turtle gave you such a warm greeting.

Cheryl, it's so good to hear you're home and recovering. Turtle was just waiting for the moment you'd walk through the door again and she could show you how much she missed you, and your games together.
