Abo...Simply in a state of pure joy this past week. About six weeks ago, DH decided to take my most beloved feline child out for a walk on a harness he got at out pet store. AAARGH! Sweet intention, but our beloved little girl (formerly feral for a full year before we brought her inside two years ago) managed to escape almost immediately from the harness and took off to the woods. My world went black. I love all our other feline children beyond reason as well (no human children as a conscious choice because I've known since I was a child that I'd be a far better and more natural mother to animals), but this child was the runt of her litter - very small and born with only one kidney, one ovary and several other problems and I've always felt super protective of her. We also feed several feral cats on our back porch - all fixed, but the two males (huge) are still extremely territorial and run off any other cats who try to approach. This meant that Georgina had almost no chance of returning without being attacked. I was in total despair - literally didn't think I could take the grief. We tried to trap the males, so we could board them until Georgina could return, but they wouldn't get near the cages since the memory of having been trapped and fixed had not gone away. Anyway, a week ago at midnight I heard her meowing on the back porch - she'd managed to get there while they were gone. *Unbelievable* joy! She'd been gone so long that I had almost given up every last trace of hope. She was down to skin and bones and has clearly been attacked multiple times, but the vet says she's going to be fine. I am grateful to the universe to the extreme. Nothing at all can disturb me (including some rather unfortunate medical stuff - all of which I feel I can totally cope with now).<br />Current perfumes are Mandy's Cassis and Tango (the kids seem to love all of Mandy's perfumes).<br />Love the pictures of your cats. That picture of Cedric has me smiling from ear to ear - pure feline contentment and bliss.<br />AnnaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27044110.post-31732693002503872182013-10-19T00:11:27.971-04:002013-10-19T00:11:27.971-04:00There's just nothing as beautiful as a kitty f...There's just nothing as beautiful as a kitty feeling totally comfortable, letting its tummy be so shamelessly displayed!
