Okay, so here’s my story.
I got an invitation to be friends with a cat shelter in Lakewood. One of the cats featured there looked JUST like my Rio kitty that I lost three years ago. They had had this cat for two years… I had to go there and make sure it wasn’t my Rio.
Of course, I got all emotional. This cat looked JUST like Rio. He was big and marked very similarly. But his eyes weren’t golden enough. And he didn’t recognize me. And his paws had slightly different markings than I remember. It’s been three years… I found myself struggling to remember exactly what my favorite cat in the planet looked like.
*sad*
So here I am, crying at this shelter. Of course all the cat ladies there understood.
Then I start asking about adoption costs.
And there’s this kitteh. He’s mewing at me from his cage. He’s talking, begging me to take him out, so I do.
He may be a good closure for me.
I call my honey, and ask him how he feels about me bringing a cat home. Of course he says okay.
And that is how I got a new kitty. We’re thinking of calling him Mr. Pink Ears Floyd.
Floyd for short.

He is very much at home on your lap. Already the head of the household, no doubt?
