she was a stray and all skinny like your parking lot companion, when i swept her up and spirited her home for the next 15 years. maybe some kindhearted soul will do the same. [i am [b][i]not[/i][/b] suggesting you do same. merry never got along with the cats already at home, she was too wild and just tolerated their presence.]

she always missed the outdoors and would take advantage of any lapse, no matter how minor, in door security to escape. fortunately she could be bribed back with a freshly "opened within her hearing" can of prime tuna.

too bad i didn't live in a saner environment so she could have the best of both worlds. but she did spend most of her waking hours on a screened-in porch, guarding her world.

i have a "grandkitty" named luna — she's a siamese who lives in decatur, georgia.

what i wanna know — what kind of name is that for a cat??

just kittying, it's a great name actually.

see you around the cat blogs.

Luna, sweetie, I wish I could change the color of my eyes so easily. Yours always look so beautiful!

It is good to know that there are a lot of people caring about cats that need our help all over the world. Not that it would be ever enough helping hands but every little helps.

Momma is trying to support local cat help organisations and cat shelters as good as she can but always gets the feeling it's not enough though.
She's too wek hearted reagarding this topic. We'd have lotsa sisfurs and brofurs around here if only this would be possible and if Othello'd accept other ctas but all he does with newcomers is hiss and spitt and growl and maybe even worse things.
So we are left to support in other ways. But it breaks mommas heart every time she goes to a cat shelter …
