Hi! My name is Arial, or maybe Holly, or maybe Kira (Mommy can't decide). And this is my story!
Let me begin Wednesday night. See, Mommy was suppposed to get this other kitten. I'm not sure what it looked like, I think it was black. But on Wednesday night, Mommy found out that the little black kitten was not right for her. So she told her Mom, to tell the lady with the kitten to forget about it. Mommy was a little glad. She wasn't sure she wanted another cat quite yet. She felt like she needed a little more time before taking that step. So, she went about her night.
About the same time her co-worker Chrissie was walking behind Grand Lake Theatre and she saw me. Some people were trying to offer me chicken. She felt bad for me, and stuck her finger out to see if I'd come. Well, I was intrigued and she seemed nice so I sniffed at it. Than a car drove by and I got so scared that I lept into her arms. It didn't seem like I had home because I had no collar, so she carried me to her house. When she got me home she realized I was all dirty, had fleas, and was very skinny. She gave me a bath, clipped my nails, cleaned my ears and put some frontline on me. Than she drove around the nieghborhood looking for signs, she didn't see any. Than, she figured that I needed a home. Obviously, I wanted one. She couldn't keep me because she has two cats already.
The next morning, my Mommy was sitting and playing with her kids when Chrissie came in and told her about me. She said I was very pretty (and I am too!) and that I was about 6 to 9 months old. My mommy really didn't want a cat but seeing as I was the third one launched at her in a 1 week period, she took it to mean the universe thought otherwise. So, she told Chrissie that she'd take me. She figured, she had all the stuff already and I needed a home. And the universe wasn't going to stop. So, Chrissie went home on her lunch break and got me. I camped out in my Mommy's boss's office until she got off work. Everybody came by to see me and they all agreed that I was very pretty. I naturally was a lady and greeted them all. I love to lay on people's laps. So, that night Mommy brought me home.
I'm still getting used to this whole being cared for. I have toys, and the best food I've ever tasted. Mommy laughed at me when I tried to cover my food up to save it for later. She explained to me that it would still be there when I was ready to finish it. My belly isn't very big so it's hard to finish all my food sometimes. And Mommy wasn't so happy when I kept her awake all night with my meowing (I'm still feeling a little insecure and her arms feel sooooo nice, I can't help it.) And I love how she lets me curl up in her lap to sleep and always gives me lots of love. I think Mommy loves me and boy do I sure love her! So, that's the beginning of my story of how Mommy and me came to be! Isn't it great?
Lots of Hugs,
Arial/ Kira/ Holly
