Dear Rosa, what a beautiful longhair kitty lady you are. Your wonderful, thick coat looks so soft, and your face is so sweet with those green eyes and your velvet nose.
This is quite a gut wrenching, yet life-affirming story your person told us. Even though pets weren't allowed in his/her apartment, he/she knew that a cat would heal all wounds.
And since you were in a bad situation yourself, you two were made for each other. I am so happy for the two of you.
I wish both of you the very best! Have a wonderful day full of celebration and many more happy and healthy years together.
And maybe, your story can help to change the law in British Columbia!
