ACHOO! Oh, Hi there. You will have to forgive me, but I am a little sneezy and boogery. Four days ago I was sitting on some wood out by our little shelter here in O Hi O and Parker's mommy saw me. I don't know why I was sitting there. I do not remember a lot about my life before I came here. I just know that Parker's Mommy spoke to me so sweetly and when she walked toward me and went to pick me up, I just let her. Something told me I should trust her. I was tired and hungry and I have a pretty bad cold. This is me right after Parker's Mommy took me inside the shelter. I was trying to get her to pet me some more.
I was hoping for some dinner, but the nice people at the shelter had to give me some tests before I could eat anything. I must be pretty smart because I passed all of them with flying colors! Lemme' tell you, I chowed down after the tests, I was a very hungry boy. Even with my sneezing and boogery nose, I wanted to eat, eat, eat!!! I am taking medicine now to make me feel better.
Here I am yesterday getting some lovin'. You can see that my eyes are much better. Everyone at the shelter thinks that I am very sweet and that I will get all better and then I get tutored (I thought I was already pretty smart, but the shelter people still thinks I need tutoring - oh wait - neutering!) - really?!? Yikes! But if that what it takes to get one of these "forever homes" I keep hearing about, it will be worth losing my boy bits...
Since I am a white kitty and a stray, Parker's Mommy asked a friend of hers if she could give me a very special name.
She told me about a special kitty boy that lived with a wonderful family in a swamp down south, He left for the Bridge and Mommy thinks that his spirit guided me to our little shelter. Her friend said yes, so now I have a very special name! I like it a lot and Parker's Mommy says that she will see to it that I get a home that is just as awesome as the one my namesake had. So
Whitey - I want to thank you for guiding me here. Life is looking up and I promise to be as good a boy as you were.
Boogery Love and purrs,
Whitey 2
