A few years ago, my family moved into a new house. We had no pets at the time and my mother, who is as much of an animal lover as I am, decided we could go look at the animais they had in our local shelter. Well I went down a row of cages where they were holding gatos and I found Leon. His sheet said he was 2 years old and he was a light laranja tabby. For some reason, we just clicked and I convinced my mom to adopt him. It was pretty funny when we got him início and realized that they hadn't neutered him, lol. But we also noticed he had a bad leg. So after taking him back to the shelter to get fixed (No, we didn't give him back :P), we took him to the vet to see what was going on with his leg. We found out 2 things: 1) He was like 6, not 2. And 2) His left hip had been injured a while go and never healed properly, probably an injury sustained from being kicked por someone. Well Leon, who I called my little lion, became my buddy. And to this day, my mother still stands por her opinion that he chose me, I never chose him and I was very much his person. We had him for a little over two years before he got sick. We weren't really sure what happened, but it will be two years this January that we had to put my Leon down. I still cry when I think about him, I'm tearing up as I'm composição literária this. But I am comforted in the fact that we got to give him his last few years in a loving início and that I was able to be there for him in his last moments. A ano later, I found my baby girl, Aspen, in my boyfriend's mom's backyard. She's a beautiful, fluffy kitty with a funny attitude. Aspen is very much the queen of the house and she is very proud (you can see it in the way she carries herself). She doesn't like other animais or most other people, but she took a liking to my boyfriend and I. She's about a ano and a half, and possibly part Maine Coon. Her hobbies include laying in sinks, demanding attention, and going crazy (especially if we're cooking bacon. Don't know why, but the smell of bacon, toucinho makes her go crazier than catnip). This summer, we also included a kitten to our little family. We got him when he was a mês old. He was found por someone else and they couldn't find the mother, but they couldn't keep him. His name is Louie and he is now a little over four months. Louie's hobbies include eating everything, harassing Aspen, and playing with his best bud, our half-Lab/half-Rottweiler doofus named Dozer. :) Pictured: Leon.♥
