Caramella at 5 months...

[Laura's Babies]

Next month, my baby will be 6 months old. She was such a sweet precious baby but is growing into such a stunning, lovely bigger girl. She is turning into another Giz, wanting to get into everything, so full of energy and she loves sleeping with me every night after she plays chase her tail for about 15 minutes before she settles down to go to sleep. I wake up during the night to find her sleeing with her front paws and head resting on my shoulder. During the morning after getting up we are still doing her in and out of my lap every 10 minutes for loving and kisses.. This morning, just for the heck of it, I gave her a kiss, then acted like I was to busy to pay her anymore attention... just to see what she would do.. She laid there a minute, then reached up and touched my face and "mew'ed" at me... "PAY ME SOME ATTENTION!!". I can't express enough how affectionate she is towards me, I am her Mommy, the only mommy she has ever had that she remembers and that is such a honor. She is still such a joy and I just can't believe she will soon be 6 months old already. These last 6 months have gone by so fast!!

When I first got her, I kept telling Mike that I thought she could be a long haired girl someday but it was obvious her fur was short. But still, she does have some long fur on her, that it what this picture is to show you. If you rub her fur backwards, look how long the fur is...

Here she is at the kitchen window watching the wind blow the leaves around.

Reading about your deep love for your Mom is so touching - you are such a dear little girl.

Laura's babies: Oh My, Your baby girl is growing up. She is very pretty and I think she knows it LOL. I cant recall... did you bottle feed her or find her when she was very very young? You said you were the only mommy she could remember. It is so obvious that you two love each other so much. Great pics! Kay in NC, Tues, Jan 11

Laura: My question.. was Caramella bottlefed... was answered by Freedom. Your Caramella loves you so much. You ARE the only mom she knows.
.
Freedom: THANK YOU so much for posting the posts from Laura re the history of Caramella. I started reading at the beginning and read just about all of them until I got computer problems. I kept thinking... Keep her, dont give her away LOL... and Laura kept her baby. Caramella would have been devastated with anyone else. Kay in NC

Glad to help, Kay.

Caramella is truly a PT baby!

[Medusa]

Wow, she really is long, Laura! What a cutie pie!

[Laura's Babies]

Thanks Freedom and I did as you suggested in her first post by adding her name... (Good idea!)

Kay, Caramella was my first bottle baby to raise and it was such a joy!! I did not intend to keep her and was desperate to get her adopted out.. I knew if I kept her past a certian point I could never let her go... we passed that point so she is here to stay, that and the fact that I did end up loosing my job so it was no longer a problem having to leave her unattened for 28 days. LOL! Seeing all she got into today, I am wondering if I should even leave her for a few minutes now! :rolleyes:

[Bengalz]

Caramella you melt my heart every time i see your precious face:love: I am so happy you and your mommy are together - it just couldn't be any other way:D

Laura - she may be feisty but she is the best kind of trouble to have:D

[chocolatepuppy]

Caramella is so pretty!:love:

[cassiesmom]

Hi, Miss Caramella cutie! Your mommy hit the nail on the head when she said you are so loved! We :love: you!

[krazyaboutkatz]

She's such a pretty girl and is growing up so fast.:) There's a very strong bond between you two so I was so glad when you finally announced that you were keeping her.:)

[Barbara]

Oh Caramella, what a lovely long-legged teenage girl you are now :)
And we at Pet Talk are all so glad that your mom let you stay with us ;)
