Rodney and Stella

Rodney and Stella have been adopted! Finally! They've been with me for 3 months and have gone to 2 open days where they were always overlooked. I'm glad someone decided to adopt them and to give them their forever home.

I have complete trust that Julie, their adoptive mom, will take good care of them. Though I'm going to miss them terribly, I know that from now on their lives are going to be better. Julie's friend Lucy told me that it is guaranteed that they will both be spoiled rotten. Spoiled rotten is good! I told Julie she can change their names if she wants.

They've come a long way - previously, Rodney was lord of the garbage bins around my apartment building. Stella, presumably his sister, would follow him around his haunts. One day, Rodney followed me home, scruffy and begging for food. I took him in and that night I didn't get any sleep because he was jittery and yowling all the time. The next morning I set him free ( I was thinking he didn't want to be cooped up in an apartment and was a true feral cat). I started feeding him by the garbage bins and discovered Stella. That was the reason why he was yowling the whole night - he was worried for his sister.

So I took them in (no yowling this time), told Feline Friends I'm fostering them, got them neutered and vaccinated, brought them to 2 open days and fell in love with them over time. It was hard to see them go but I'm happy for them.

So tonight, instead of snoozing on my armchair, they will be sleeping in a posh high-rise apartment. I'll definitely visit them someday.

Who is Harrison?

I've noticed that I've been posting a lot of dogs in this blog lately. So to even it out, I'll take the opportunity to post a photo of my wonderful cat, Harrison. And yes, he's also the one featured in this blog's banner.

This is him:
I love this cat so much it should be illegal!
