No, unfortunately I didn't get a new kitty.But my Aunt did!
As long as I've known her (41 years now) I don't think my Aunt has ever had an indoor kitty. She's always been a "dog person." Well, the ex-husband got custody of their last dog, so she was animal-less.....until now. I just found out about this, and haven't seen any pictures, and she doesn't know how to do pictures on the computer so I guess I will just have to go visit sometime real soon.
Here's the email she sent me explaining how she came to be owned Hazelle.
Sounds like my Aunt and Hazelle will be very happy together. I told her about Pet Talk, so hopefully one of these days she'll sign up and learn how she (my Aunt) no longer is the ruler of her domain because Hazelle has now taken that role.This is a brief explanation of how Hazelle came to live with me.
(name deleted) breeds and shows Birman cats. She and her husband flew to England at Thanksgiving to visit a breeder there. They brought home Hazelle, a chocolate tabby and a male kitten. Shortly after, Hazelle was struck with a virus in one eye. Vet said it was because she was given tuna to eat when in England. (name deleted) had to isolate her because of possible contamination of her other cats, of which she has more than a few. Hazelle was isolated in a bathroom. (name deleted) asked if I would take the kitten and gave me her bed, toys, food and carrier. Hazelle was very frightened for a day and half, but has come to be comfortable. She loves to explore closets or lower cupboards. Her favorite spot is up by the sink in her cat room, the big bathroom. She is my shadow and right now lies on my lap.
Yes, it is a love affair.
She sounds like a real cutie, although I'll have to do a search to find out exactly what a "chocolate tabby" Birman looks like.
