Hello, my friend.
Thank you for sharing Emma with us. She's a beautiful kitty and, indeed, her green eyes are lovely. I'm glad she came to live with you but one thing troubles me and that's your allowing her to go outside. It's a true statistic that kitties who remain indoors all the time live longer lives, partly from the fact they can't be hit by cars, hurt by stray dogs, or mean people, but also because when she's out, you can't control what she eats and if she were to come upon something hurtful, you wouldn't be there to stop her. I know a lady who got a kitten for her daughter and when the kitten grew a little older, she started letting it go outside. Unfortunately, her car was leaking a bit of antifreeze on the driveway and antifreeze is sweet to kitties. This kitten drank some and died in agony. The true fact of the matter is that if you let your kitty go outside, you're simply gambling with their life. Please know I am not getting on you, my friend. I used to let my cats out, too, and ended up losing one to a car and a couple more just disappeared and I never did know what happened to them. That was thirty years ago and I still wonder occasionally what became of them. I'm just trying to save you the same grief, assuming you love your kitty as much as I do my own. The kitties I have now don't go outside and one of them will be sixteen years old next summer and the other will be eleven. One Siamese kitty I had who never went out lived to be seventeen years old, for which I was grateful. It's up to you what you do now but at least I've done my part in urging you to keep this precious kitty indoors.
Take care and please, again, don't feel I'm jumping on you. I just hope to save you from possible heart ache.
My love to all in Jesus, my Lord,
