Gotcha Day

"Lynn, I have been with you 11 whole years. Where has all the time gone?"


"I was so embarrassed that the orphanage only gave me
the clothes on my back.  I had no new grey onesie fur my
new home."


"I was such a skinny unhappy orphan. And you found me.
You told me my onesie came with an elastic waist band and
extra deep leg hems fur letting out as I would some day
grow bigger."


"Now look at me, fat and sassy.  I think
I may just stay on fur a while longer."


Precious turned 12 years old this past November.
I hope she is here with me another 11 years.



Thank you for stopping by for a visit and a comment.
It is much appreciated.

Happy Gotcha Day, Precious! It was a great day for both you and Lynn, finding your forever home. I wish you many more Gotcha Day celebrations to come! ❤️

Happy Gotcha Day you beautiful girl, you! Your Onesie is looking gloriously smooth and silky. You and Lynn are so fortunate to have found one another and made one another your own! I know your Mom must gaze down at you during leg time and say over again how fortunate the two of you are to have found one another. The orphanage knew you and Lynn could fix your Onesie as you went along. That's why they didn't give you another before you left to go home.

Happy Gotcha Day, Precious! I thought you were still just a young thing judging by your looks. Oh well, 12 is the new 8. I'm so glad your Mommy rescued you.

Dearest Lynn and Precious,
What a very special day it is for the both of you!
Yep, you hit bingo when departing from that orphanage and things worked out very well.
Kitties can be so grateful and loyal for being adopted.
We picked up three at the Humane Society and boy were they grateful.
Hugs,
Mariette + kitties

It is amazing that God clothes the animals with the clothing that they need! Precious looks so happy with you, and I never can get over how much she looks like my two cats!

Your yellow sink fits you purrfectly! And yellow and gray are complementary to one another, so are in-sync efurry time you get together.
