Thank you, everyone.

The girls were special. Katie was so clever. Who knows how long she'd been living outside (I don't think she was feral because she warmed up to me immediately), but once she moved herself indoors she never showed the slightest interest in going out. She was so lovely and gentle.

And Cricket loved nothing better than a good snuggle. She hated sharing me with the other cats. I wish now that I'd been able to give her all the undivided attention that she wanted.
