Marvelous, Magnificent Maki!

[phesina]

Dearest Maki, you are marvelous and magnificent indeed! What a handsome gentleman you are, an absolutely stunning Peach Tabby. My absolutely stunning Peach Tabby girl says "Hello, Meow!" Thank you for sharing those great photos with us! You are so beautiful in them both, with that pale orange fur that looks so soft and that sweet face with those long white whiskers and lovely big green eyes. In the first one, you look like you are relaxing on a cloud gazing out at us, and in the second you're so cute on your side with your eyes shut, reaching out with your "arms." I wish I could reach through the screen and across the ocean to La Rochelle, France and pet you! I can't, of course, but I know your loving and beloved persons will pet you for me .

And what a story you have to tell! You and your dear brothers and sisters were all abandoned at age one year. I'm horrified and revolted to think of the kind of sub-humans who would abandon you all like that. And I'm so very glad and grateful you were rescued. You were placed in a shelter, and not long afterwards you met and then adopted your dear Forever Family there. You let them know they were the chosen ones by climbing onto their backs! My deepest gratitude to those great shelter people who took you in and then brought you together with your family-to-be. And also my deepest gratitude to your terrific family for bringing you Home! I hope and pray that your siblings also were rescued and have happy stories to tell now.

And what a delightful personality you have! You're a very loving cat and sometimes follow your people around like a dog would do. You love being carried like a baby on your person's shoulder and petted, and you also enjoy tummy-pets. You're funny and cute when you sleep, often in unusual positions, as we see in that one photo. You're very peaceful and loving, and your people can play with you like a doll. You never scratch or bite except in play. You all love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!

Congratulations, darling Maki, on being chosen Cat of the Day! We hope you and your dear people and siblings and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats.
