This is Birdie; a long-haired calico, age 3 years old and a very sweet little girl. Birdie is a big-time daddy's girl and she nails John the minute he gets home, she insists he take her and sit down and hold her. Birdie was adopted from the local shelter. One day while out driving around I said to John lets stop at the shelter and have a look around. When we went into the cat room, there was Birdie and that little face of hers melted my heart in about 10 seconds. Birdie's family surrendered her when the new human baby came. I cannot begin to imagine how brokenhearted she must have been feeling when her family left her at the shelter, wondered what she had done wrong, when were they going to return for her.
This is Charlie, a stray who ended up at our house. One day John had just gotten home from work and he saw this poor cat staggering towards him. One look told you she was almost completely starved to death and obviously VERY pregnant. She was very friendly and came right over to him and allowed him to scoop her up and bring her into the house. John said he brought her into the house and immediately fed her and gave her a bowl of fresh water. A couple weeks later Charlie had her kittens and all 4 of them passed away and once she was recovered and had gained a couple pounds, she was spayed. Now days her greatest concern is were she is going to nap in the mornings and then wrestle that same decision in the afternoons. Charlie's most favorite thing in the whole world besides eating; getting tummy scritches from daddy.
