Ellie and Cory's Gotcha Day!


We woke up this morning and were terribly upset that mom seemed to have ::forgotten:: our Gotcha Day! 

Ellie:  I immediately went to work, running through the house and bunnykicking my parents feet until they yelled at me to stop.  I didn't.  

Finally mom read our messages from our good furriends and finally got the message.  Yes, it is our 6th anniversary of our Gotcha Day!  The most important day of the year.


We wouldn't be here if it weren't for the wonderful humans at United Paws.  They saved our lives and made sure we got the best forever home EVER!  Together!!!

::purrrrrr::

I don't think we've ever written about this, but our ride home was quite the adventure.  We had to drive an hour and a half to get home and we had  never had much experience in a car.  Momma Ellie had panic attacks which meant that mom and dad had to drive slow and stop lots of times to calm her down.  When we eventually got to our new home, we were thrilled.  We immediately settled in on the couch and had a nice long nursing session.

 Below is a photo taken with Momma Ellie's favorite toy in the whole wide world "beloved snakie".  She played with this until it finally completely fell apart.  Momma still misses him.



Our Belated Gotcha Day!

  

Happy Gotcha Day to us!!!!  My momma Ellie and I came home 5 years ago on May 19th!  We forgive mom being a day late on posting since we wanted Jonesie to be able to have her regularly scheduled Society of Feline Gardeners meeting yesterday.

Here is the link to a previous Gotcha Day celebration that explains our whole gotcha story.  The picture above is my daddy holding me on the day I went home.  This was right before my momma and I got in our travel carrier.

Once we got home we quickly settled in and we did what we loved to do.  Be with each other and nurse!

We will quietly observe the day in gratitude at being able to spend our lives together.
