I thought I'd never have any cats again when my 20 year old sweetie crossed the rainbow bridge but then a friend died early in the pandemic and her two cats were in foster care for a long time. I was surprised nobody had adopted them so finally came to my senses and said yes.

One of my best decisions. I'm happy for you and your girl and wishing you as much joy as these guys bring me every day.

I really do much better under feline supervision.
