Today, April 22, it's 10 years ago that this precious, loving little soul came to this world. It was on Holy Saturday of 2000 that this sweet little kitten was born who moved in with me 6 weeks later, and who was named Luna, like the Goddess of the moon in the sky.

Now, for her 10th birthday, I made a video tribute to express my love for her, and she really seems to feel that because she loves watching it. :love: The song playing is one that was released around the time she moved to my place, and it reminded me of her right from the start:


Luna's Birthday Video (http://www.catmom.de/video/luna_birthday.wmv)


My sweet Luna, I'm so grateful that you are sharing your life with me, and I hope I'm giving you a good life. I'm doing my best to make you happy, and I really really hope that we will have many more years together!! I love you so very much!!


:love: :love: :love:

Happy 10th Birthday, my dear Luna!!


:love: :love: :love:

Your loving mommy,
Kirsten

Luna, when I first saw your sweet face in 2002, I fell in love with you immediately. Today you are 10 years old and as beautiful as ever.

You can spend the big day with your mommy after all!! :) I know she will spoil you with presents, treats and cuddles like you deserve, and Lily will surely be extra nice also. ;)

I wish you many more happy and healthy years!

Kirsten, I Iove the video, it shows Luna in so many different situations and moods - she simply is a beautiful girl.

Kisses and purrs from us.:love: :love:

Oh Randi, that is so sweet! Thanks a lot for this picture! :)

Yes, I'm happy that I can spend the day with Luna! I even talked the surgeon at the hospital into doing the new surgery next week, so I could be with Luna today on her birthday. :D Otherwise I would have been admitted today, but I didn't want that.

Stoopid work server won't let me watch it. *sigh* Happy Birthday, Luna!

Luna says thank you for all the birthday wishes!!

She just got a special treat, tuna, which is really special because she's usually on her struvite crystal diet, so she enjoyed it a lot.

She shared it with Lily, who usually doesn't like canned food:

I hope Luna wasn't too frustrated when I took the plate away after a while. I didn't want her to eat all at once because I don't want her to get sick. She'll have the rest later. :)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LUNA! Your Mom took such gorgeous pics of you, stunning and gorgeous girl! :love::love::love:

I am glad she included some baby pics. Have a lovely day, sweetheart!:):love::love::love:

I was just going to say... what a huge portion! LOL! It's a good idea to save some for later. You don't want her to puke on her birthday. :eek: Looks like she is enjoying it - and Lily, too. :)

She looks healthy and happy, and my wish is that she continues to be. Now, she will probably want a nap and some cuddles - give her some from me, too. :love:

Hi Luna! I'm sorry this is late but there are problems with our compooter and Meowmie is all mad at it.....again.
Anyway, I hope you had a super purrthday with lots of fun and tons of love. Your tuna cake looked so yummy, how nice of you to share it with Lily.

Wishing you many more years of happiness, love, and companionship with Lily and your wonderful Meowmie!

Kirsten, any chance you have a photo of Luna's dad? I'd love to see who he is/was.

Happy belated Birthday Luna!!!!
We can see what a wonderful birthday you had- love the tuna party you threw for Lily;)

And can you imagine- I never noticed you have one cream paw- how cute:)

Kirsten
04-24-2010, 12:21 PM
Thanks, Cindy! :)

Randi, unfortunately, I don't have any photos of Luna's Mom and Dad. The family of her tabby Mom told me that the momcat was often dating a huge orangie, and since Luna and two of her sisters had lots of orange spots in their tabby fur, it's very likely that he was their daddy! :)

Barbara, her cream paw was the first thing I noticed about her - and it helped me to tell Luna apart from her tabby sisters after I decided that I was going to adopt her...

Happy Birthday Luna!

She seems to have a light peach-colored undercoat which is very pretty. She doesn't look like she's 10 years old, though.

Kirsten
04-25-2010, 12:42 PM
Yes, she's still having the face of a young cat, I think...

And you're right, there's a lot of peach in her fur, which makes her look so special! :love:

I was finally able to watch Luna's video. Extremely well done!!! I love the one where she's sound asleep on your keyboard. And her baby pictures, what an adrable little kitten! No wonder you fell in love with her!
