Dear Syd, what a handsome boy you are. You look so soft and fluffy, and even though you look a bit serious there sitting in the tree, your face is very sweet.
You have come a long way from being a skinny, scarred stray to being an indoor kitty with access to this beautiful outdoor enclosure!
I'm glad that you are being kept safe since you are an older gentleman now. Even though you still miss your roaming ways, and you don't agree with your parents, I think you will appreciate the comfortable indoors.
Syd the Kat, you are a special kitty, and I wish you, your doggie siblings and your parents a great day full of celebration, and many more happy and healthy years together.
