Dearest, most beautiful Maris, there are so many knothead pet owners out there; you had the misfortune to run afoul of some of them. Now, though, you have found love and security with your new family. My girlcat, Dinah Lee, also was an abandoned pet, left in an apartment at six months old when her young knothead owners divorced and moved out in the middle of the night. One hopes they are miserable about it now, but I doubt it. May you have a long, healthy and happy life, sweet girl!
