What a beautiful and loving girl you are, Bit! And such a long-time source of blessing and joy to your human friends. Congratulations on your special honor and long may your fluffy tail wave!

Your story really encourages me that my beloved Julie will be with me well beyond the ten years we have known each other...November is actually our anniversary month, when Julie and I got together after she was abandoned by some people who moved out of our neighborhood. I have no idea how old she is, but I am hoping to enjoy her company many years more!

Kisses and purrs to you, Bit, and your human friends, from MARTHA and Julie ("MEE-ow!") the Calico Princess!
