Marvelous Mister Moon!

Hi Mister Moon, a.k.a. Moon-Dean, Mooesha, Rubbina and Mowli! Happy Cat of the Day to you, sweetheart!

What a beautiful, bodacious, gentle giant of a silver Tabby boy you are, Moon! And so perfectly named, for you truly are an earthly, furry angel; heaven sent!

I was so moved, reading your Mom's love filled tribute; almost in tears, reading of your horrific start at life! Speaking as an animal/cat lover, a rescue volunteer and a nurse, I can't for the life of me understand the Humane Society's thinking! What an unspeakably heartless start at life for a defenseless, sentient being!

Thank God, as unconscionably cruel an experience as that was, that was the extent of their "practicing," with you finally being sprung from that lab, finding your way to that devoted furever human/family you always deserved, loved unconditionally! Despite the warning of others, your Mom knew in her gut and her heart from day one that there was nothing truly "wrong" with you, seeing beyond your wounded body and spirit for the sparkling diamond in the rough that you were; a truly gentle soul with a heart of gold; welcoming all comers with open paws! And just look at you now, Moon, the very picture of a happy, healthy, confident and trusting boy! Your transformation is testament to your indomitable, fighting spirit, and the healing power of unconditional love and devotion! You truly are a fighter and survivor, Moon, and your resilience an inspiration to us all!

Our vet told us Moon would never need another cat or dog in his life but a year ago, we asked him to let another adult cat come live with us. He was amazing! He accepted Bean into his home and loves him like his little brother. He has even let Bean take over some of his cushions and all of his other favorite spots. We love him sooo much and can't imagine life without him. We are so blessed to have found him that day at the humane society and pray he has many more years ahead of him.

How truly blessed your Mom is, Moon, having been blessed with a loyal and loving best friend, a heart healer, a full fledged furry family member/son in you! They just don't come any more special that you Moon! You're the best, a gem, and so very deserving of your big day of honor!

Thanks for the BIG smiles, sweetheart! Meeting you today, seeing your over the moon heart-melting photos and learning of the very special bond of love you and your Mom, your family share, has made my morning! I hope you enjoy a very special day of celebration...napping on your comfy couch; spending fun fur time with your bestie, Mr. Bean; receiving tons of pats, cuddles and rubbies; being loved and pampered to pieces; treated to all your heart desires and more! Lots of love, hugs and kisses to you, brave, beautiful Moon, our very special and most deserving Cat of the Day, EVERY day! Love to dear Bean, too! And here's to many, many more wonderful years of shared love and companionship for you and your family!!!

Beautiful Moon!
