    Bob's Gotcha Day #3! (report slightly delayed)

    On July 11, 2008 I took a drive to Kentwood, MI (suburban Grand Rapids) and came back home with Bob.. a Cerebellar Hypoplasia boy who needed to find a new home or he might be put down.

    A couple of days ago I was looking through an old datebook and realized I had missed his Gotcha Date when it happened nearly a couple of weeks ago. So belatedly, I want to say now:

    HAPPY GOTCHA DAY #3, MY DARLING BOBBY BOY! I LOVE YOU SO VERY, VERY MUCH. WHAT A JOY IT IS TO HAVE YOU AS PART OF OUR FAMILY!

    Love from your Pat and your six kittie sibbies

    I meant," said Ipslore bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worthwhile?"
    Death thought about it.
    CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.

    Dear Bob! I remember when your mum made the trip to pick you up! I love your upside-down picture -- you look very comfy on your kitty cushion! Happy Gotcha Day!
    Praying for peace in the Middle East, Ukraine, and around the world.

    I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
    Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!

    He often gets in that position, upside down with front paws tucked up close to his face. When he does that, he is saying more clearly than if he'd spoken the words aloud: " Rub... this..... tummy!!!!!" And of course I oblige him.
