I wanted to adopt a small female kitten when I made the rounds at the shelters 5 years ago.
While all the others kittens were meowing and jumping for attention, my eyes fell on a very quiet, barely 12 week old orange kitten who was flea-ridden and so skinny that his bones were protruding. I knew right then that he deserved all the love and the best life I could give him.
I was so worried the he might not live through that night or the required neutering the next day. Today he’s a long, sleek, very healthy 20 pound kitty.
This is my sweet boy, Gringo – the love of my life. (He & I were the only two ‘blondes’ that day at the San Diego shelter… hence, his name.)
