Therapy Cat
What is a therapy cat? It’s just how I justify a third cat in our apartment.
Apparently “Christmas cat” wasn’t good enough to get Charley to go for it. :) The fact is that Laelia reacts well to kitties (she calls them ”gookies”) and will reach out to them or try to use her body in different ways to get to them. (Great physical therapy!) Problem is that our two gookies won’t have anything to do with her. So we found out that the animal shelter will cut the price of adoption and surgery (getting it fixed) in half if the animal goes to a disabled person. Thus, therapy cat.
I wanted a kitten, but they just weren’t good with her. We saw this eight month old and got her out of her cage just to pass the time. She walked right up to Lali and let Lali pull her fur and smack her face while she purred. Instant love! So we had to bring her home.

How perfect is that!? I can’t wait to see more of Lali and her new therapy cat. :o)

Oh that’s cool! Sounds like a good choice… you don’t always know how a kitten’s personality will turn out. I can’t wait to meet this one
I also like the coloring - I want one of those! Maybe Steve and I can get a cat like this, already fixed and all. hmm….
