rescued for life!



WHAT IS


2 lbs 9 oz
of striped fluffy love...

who wants to be cuddled, held & carried...
unravels the toilet paper from the roll...
has an unending curiosity...
leaps, dashes & jumps in all directions, seemingly at the same time...

and finally
finding
a
warm
lap
to
curl
up
in
?!



WELCOME (to our world) EMO!!



since milo passed away...we have been missing her...
and the pitter-patter of little cat feet.

we picked out this little bundle from the Humane Society yesterday.
it was love at first sight...all the way around!

he was born on august 6, 2012...was dropped off at a fire station,
and turned over to the animal shelter on september 17.

he weighed 2 lbs 9 ozs on october 24.
his name at the shelter was Emerson.
we sort of combined emerson & milo...and came up with EMO!!

life as he had known it 'til yesterday, was life in a cage.
now he has more space to roam than he could ever have imagined.

we LOVE him to pieces!


~have a happy week~

  9. YAAAAY! So happy for all of you. I figured you'd find a special furry "someone" all in good time. Looks like a real sweetie...

  10. He looks utterly gorgeous - how lucky you all are. Our Sophie has very similar markings - a little more white perhaps... she has the sweetest nature and is a real character.
    Enjoy!

    And thanks for your comment about my header :)
